Stealing another man's identity, he attempts to obtain a medium's license, which are only granted to men, that will allow him the freedom to travel and choose his own career. However, he's found out before that can happen and forced to attend Braxton's Finishing School and Sanitorium, where rebellious girls are subjected to torture to try to reform them to become proper wives. When Silas arrives, spirits cry out to him for help, and he quickly learns that girls who don't conform keep disappearing and becomes determined to expose the school's crimes and find a way to make it out alive.
