After moving to Mexico with her parents, Winter Gutan hoped that local alternative medicine would cure her mother's illness. When her mother does not survive the controversial treatments, Winter's life spirals into despair.
Winter's father, a software engineer, insists his computer program, Fractalistic, will enable them to communicate with her mother's spirit. But as his sanity begins to slip, Winter confides in her computer whizz friend, Rafa, who tells her that fractal technology is for treating false memories. There's nothing paranormal about it, leaving Winter confused and without hope. Will she lose her mother forever?
Suspecting her dad is hiding a deep secret, Winter begins running Fractalistic behind his back, and to her horror, her deceased mother appears before her, begging for help. Is it all Winter's imagination, or was her father on to something?
Fractalistic may enable Winter to communicate with her deceased mother, but it might also unleash cryptic memories buried within Winter's mind. To unravel the mystery, Winter must hack into her father's system to uncover a terrifying truth...or remain in the dark forever.
