As darkness descends throughout the bleak winter Una finds herself more often than not in her rented attic space the site of a local legendary haunting drinking her loneliness away. She is plagued by nightmares of a little girl in a white dress singing a lullaby. And when a sudden tragedy echoes an event long buried in Sk lar's past the villagers become even more guarded leaving a suspicious Una seeking to uncover a shocking truth that's been kept secret for generations.
