'Death is a lot of damned work', thinks 18 year old ghost, Charlotte Williams, as she braves the unsettled world of the In-Between. It's here the rebellious teen finds the clues she so desperately needs in her battle against diabolic, secret society, The Hollow (who took her life, and just happen to be trying to end the world!). With goth ghost bestie, Poe (a strong, hilarious substitute big sister), the pair work to decipher the latest clues to thwart the evil sect at every turn. However, things get hairy when The Hollow kidnap Charlotte's young son, Luke in retaliation. A devastated Charlotte then suffers with the guilt of screwing up his young life 'even in death', before forming a plan with Poe to get him back, and make The Hollow pay. And, along the way, maybe even save the world...
