Here's the set-up:

Nicole Baxter has always tried to control every element of her life, but that control is slipping away. 

She has issues. Abandonment issues. Marital issues. Conception issues. And she thinks her house in the hills is haunted. 

It doesn't help that her husband Truman spelunks and climbs, making her worry more with each adventure he takes. As the two grow apart, Nicole makes decisions that may ultimately shatter her fragile marriage.

Her life changes on the afternoon she receives a phone call from the harbor. During a scuba dive, Truman disappears. No one -- not his diving instructor, not the Coast Guard -- can find him. 

Is he still alive? Or is grief making her believe the impossible?
