While fossil hunting, Allie comes close to falling off a dangerous cliff. An unknown voice keeps her calm and talks her to a safer position. Allie senses that someone or something is trying to contact her and the discovery of a grave marker and a journal pique her curiosity. Because Allie's family and friends know she exaggerates, only her close friend Dub believes her. They follow a path leading to the grave of a young girl killed almost four years earlier. Allie's attempt to investigate Lucy Stiles's death puts her own life in jeopardy with a greedy land developer.
