Overview

IS IT DESTINY? Or are they just troubled human beings whose secrets and misunderstandings are leading them into a nightmare of their own making... Twenty-five years ago a nameless young woman watches from across the street as a fire rages through her attic apartment. Someone wants her dead. Defiant, she vows to fight back by any means possible. Fast forward to present day, where Rayni Jameson, a recent college graduate in AZ, simmers with bitter anger towards her mother, Zanna, whose lies and evasions about the past-especially who Rayni's father is-have long infuriated her. When an invitation comes out of the blue to move to the Bay Area in Northern California-the very place her mother once lived-she decides to do something about it. At the same time, in another Bay Area town, the MacKenzies have their own troubles: Mac shields a secret from his grown son Nick and struggles with how and when to tell him the truth, completely unaware that his bitter, schizophrenic ex-wife Angeline is scheming to control all their destinies in a terrifying way. And then there is ""The group"": a cast of zany characters who ostensibly meet to study religion. Their meetings are mostly social, a way to escape their individual problems and worries. But then strange things begin to happen.... Almost supernatural things... Meanwhile, Zanna becomes frantic-and desperate to stop her daughter from being drawn into the darkness she herself once escaped, she returns to San Francisco, where she is befriended by ""the group."" They seem normal, caring even... But then strange things begin to happen... Almost supernatural things... Worse yet, they are having dreams similar to her own. But do those dreams actually carry messages? And are they really being urged toward some unknown, possibly horrendous event, as some suspect? Or is it just their imaginations... Meanwhile, watching from the shadows, are two mysterious figures-Pierre and Mrs. Jannes-whose motives are hidden, but whose influence may well decide everything.
