Charlotte, an alienated sound engineer, travels to the country home where her mother was just murdered. She is quickly frustrated by the lack of progress in the police investigation and so begins her own. While listening to a fresh sound recording she made in her mother's house, Charlotte discovers a strange phenomenon, she can hear sounds from the past in her headphones. Soon she is using this ability to hear the past to piece together the last few days of her mother's life, drawing ever closer to discovering who killed her, even as the murderer returns to try and eliminate Charlotte before they are discovered.
The sound engineer Charlotte returns from Paris to her hometown in the countryside after the death of her mother, a clairvoyant card-reader murdered in her cottage. In the opinion of the police, the killer was one of her acquaintances as the house was not broken into. Charlotte feels hostility from her neighbors and decides to bug their house using her sound equipment. However she finds that inside her mother's house, there is a connection with the past and she can hear what happened there. Charlotte investigates the leads and discovers the truth about the death of her mother.
