Description: After a crane crushes his truck, millionaire Edgar Freemantle launches a new life. His wife asked for a divorce after he stabbed and tried to strangle her one-handed (he lost his arm and for a time his rational brain in the accident). He leaves Minnesota for remote Duma Key, Florida, which is owned by Elizabeth Eastlake, an octogenarian with a tragic past. When Edgar begins to paint, his talent seems to come from outside him, and the paintings have a power that cannot be controlled. Soon the ghosts of Elizabeth's childhood return, along with the damage of which they are capable.
