After barely surviving his brush with death, Clay Donovan is stuck between worlds-his body clings to life, but his soul refuses to let go. As he struggles to understand the new rules of the afterlife, a restless spirit begins terrorizing a college campus, seeking vengeance on those who left him behind.

Darcey, ever the fiend, is ready to do what she does best: eliminate the problem. But Clay isn't convinced death is the only way out. As they race to stop the haunting before it turns deadly, Clay stumbles upon a horrifying truth-one that could change everything he thought he knew about the afterlife.

Meanwhile, Brynn is on her own mission. Anna's father has disappeared, leaving more questions than answers, and she's willing to go to any lengths to track him down. Even if it means stepping into the darkness herself.

Some souls seek redemption. Others want revenge. And some? Some just want to watch the world burn.
