As Dr. Irene Míral was growing up, her mother shared personal stories of harrowing domestic violence and strange perceptual events. Irene becomes a psychologist because she wants to help women like her mother. After her mom's funeral, Irene is more determined than ever to make the new PTSD unit she leads at Lakeside Hospital a success. Irene sees her work as a crucial mission, the program as a vital prototype. She did not expect to have to fight for its survival and the dignity of the women under her care. Chauvinistic and arrogant, the supervising psychiatrist thinks Irene's program is unnecessary. The women in the program are Hispanic. As a Latina, Irene knows she must push back and prevent the doctor from prematurely discharging her patients and ending the PTSD unit. She is determined, no matter the obstacles. However, she did not expect that he would resort to sexual harassment and intimidation. Driven by a hope to finally find answers to her mother's mysterious perceptual experiences and, possibly, a link to her patients’ flashbacks, Irene accepts an invitation to collaborate on a paranormal research project. She disregards the unconventional aspects of the research and dedicates all her free time to the lab. She and her research partner, David, are convinced their subjects possess a unique gift for telepathic communication. Willing to experiment beyond the established norms of scientific inquiry, they dare to straddle the realms of science and the paranormal. Irene does not know it yet, but her career may be at stake. And she does not realize she is falling in love. Soon, Irene finds herself in the midst of an emotional storm, struggling with the intense feelings she is developing for David. She does not trust her heart, for the pain of the women in her care and the hardships her mother endured ring like a warning bell in her mind. With upheaval at Lakeside and her intense emotions for David, Irene faces a crossroads in her life's journey. The outcome is staggering.
