Luckily, Jess finds a bargain at her local charity shop: a beautiful portrait of a girl with tumbling red hair, perfectly sized to fit the space.
But once the picture is hanging in her room, Jess is plagued by disturbing nightmares featuring the girl in the portrait--Araminta. At first, Jess's mom and her friend Tina think she's making it all up. They soon change their minds when they experience the painting's strange power for themselves...
