Synopsis When novelist Patricia V. Davis relocated to Sutter County, California, where her husband's family has owned and operated a rice farm since the 1800s, she fell in love with both the beauty of the area and the people who live there, and wanted the world to see it through her eyes. She took a hiatus from novels to write a screenplay, the romantic psychological thriller, Lyvia's House. Struck by her discovery of brutal murders that had been perpetuated in orchards not far from her new rural home, the terrible incident inspired her to write her story. It follows Tara, a young journalist who has recently transplanted with her new lover from the lavish milieu where she was raised, to the beautiful but bucolic home of a missing Italian artist named Lyvia. Town talk of the lovely but reclusive Lyvia is dismissive, even mocking, but Tara soon begins to wonder if her disappearance is somehow connected to murders that took place in the area twenty years earlier. As Tara sees and hears things that seem more and more irrational, she begins to doubt her own sanity. But is she truly experiencing a dissolving sense of reality, or is she simply unaware of the tortured relationships of those surrounding her?
