Sobre IBD

In Lady of Parham we meet five revelers who have come together to form a Carnival troupe but settle for dramatizing the tale of the Parham ghost. Legend has it that in Antigua in the late 1650s the beautiful Sarah Rumsey murdered Thomas Flynn, her husband's uncle, to take control of the wealth he had planned to use to educate Antigua's slaves. Sarah died in a mysterious fire shortly after and since then her ghost has haunted Parham Village looking for someone worthy to tell where she hid the gold. Only when Uncle's treasure is put to good use will her soul finally know peace. In the telling of the story, Justin, Tulip, Sauna, Kyle, and Mable must confront the demons that threaten to derail their lives.
