Shane Bitrec has been Keeganโs next-door neighbor and best friend for most of her life. High school graduation is going to mean big changes that sheโs been trying to prepare for all year. But drifting away hasnโt been as easy as she thought, and when Shane gets involved in her quest, it disrupts more than just her independence. Confrontation gives rise to unprecedented feelings that threaten everything theyโve meant, or could mean, to each other.
When transitioning the spirits to the afterlife proves more dangerous than Keegan expected, Shaneโs constant presence becomes both a vital tool and an emotional minefield. Investigating the mansionโs darkly complicated history leads to Keegan becoming tied to the energy of the house and its phantoms. Their desperation threatens her life, and only Shane can protect her. But who will protect him?
