Imagine discovering that your most mundane days could transform into something magical. For seventy-two-year-old Grace Winters, this impossible journey begins with an unexpected inheritance-a house in Ibiza left to her by Christina van der Berg, a woman she barely knew. Grace's life has been defined by loss: her husband Karl, her dog Bernard, and most devastatingly, her son Daniel. Living in a state of anhedonia-unable to feel pleasure-she exists rather than lives in her Lincoln bungalow. Food merely fills her up; music is just patterned noise. When she receives news of her inheritance, Grace forms a simple plan: fly to Ibiza with an open return ticket and stay until she hates it enough that even her empty bungalow seems better. The moment Grace steps off the plane into Ibiza's furnace-like heat, something shifts. The striking uninhabited rock of Es Vedra gives her a strange feeling of both dread and wonder. Her taxi driver mentions seeing "a massive light" from her inherited house-a small white box with peeling paint that seems unremarkable from the outside. But inside, Grace discovers Christina's vibrant life documented in photos: performing with a microphone, standing next to Freddie Mercury, diving with a bearded man. Most touchingly, in several pictures, Christina wears the St. Christopher necklace Grace had given her decades ago during a brief encounter that somehow changed Christina's life. What begins as a simple trip to see an inherited property quickly spirals into something far more mysterious when Grace discovers an olive jar that refills itself with strange-smelling water, and learns that Christina was a psychic who "disappeared presumed drowned" after booking a midnight dive.
