NARCOSIS is a state of drowsiness or unconsciousness, caused by deep-sea diving. It refers to the state where our strong female main character is in. In a way she had always known. One day, her husband – a professional diver – would never come back up, and leave her and her two children to grieve. How can she grieve peacefully and protect her children, when she knows that she has the special power of connecting with the dead?
