Mina soon realises that Beckler is targeting the families of the deceased whose spirits appear in his photographs, many of whom have died in mysterious circumstances. And before long, Beckler's claims attract her worst enemy back to Brighton... Is Mr Beckler genuine in his claims to be able to photograph the dead? What connects the families he is targeting?
