When Elliot Hoover loses his wife and daughter, Audrey Rose, in a fiery car crash, his world explodes. To heal his mental anguish and claim some peace, he visits a psychic who reveals to him that his daughter has been reincarnated as a young girl named Ivy Templeton, living in New York City. Desperate to reclaim anything from his daughter's past, Hoover tracks down Ivy, and becomes convinced that she really is his daughter reincarnated. In an effort to save his daughter's soul, Hoover must choose between two horrifying possibilities, either leaving his daughter's soul in torment, or taking the life of the young girl in whose body she now resides.
