Inexplicably, the music has a terrifying effect on her three-year-old daughter. Julia is convinced that the notes produce an evil spell and she wants to find out who composed it. Her search takes her to Venice, where she discovers the dark secret of one family who will stop at nothing to make sure the truth never comes out.
