It's 1948, and sixteen-year-old Eliza Kendall's father has just dropped her off at Prescott House, a home for unwed mothers. Pregnant and alone, Eliza's blossoming friendship with her three roommates becomes the only thing that gives her hope. Together, the girls find comfort in that friendship despite abuse from a bitter and self-righteous headmistress. Caught between adolescence and womanhood, the friends seek refuge in what lies beyond the veil of sleep and dreams, to what is hidden within the walls of the home itself-passages rumored to be remnants of the Underground Railroad. They hold seances for spirits that once haunted the grounds-a benevolent woman from Civil War times and the ghost of her malicious father-in-law. When the girls discover corpses of other pregnant women are secretly being removed from Prescott House, they lean on their friendships and the wisdom passed onto them from those who have come before-the butterfly sisters. But is their bond more powerful than the threats they face?
