A TEENAGE GIRL CALLS HER BELOVED OLDER BROTHER BACK FROM THE GRAVE, WITH DISASTROUS CONSEQUENCES....
Dashiell Bohnacker was hell on his family while he was alive. But it's even worse now that he's dead....
After her older brother, Dashiell, dies of an overdose, sixteen-year-old Ruby is overcome by grief and longing. She doesn't know that Dashiell's ghost is using her nightly dreams of him as a way to possess her body--and to persuade her twin brother, Everett, to submit to possession as well.
Dashiell tells Ruby and Everett that he's returned from the Land of the Dead to tie up loose ends, but he's actually on the run from forces crueler and more powerful than anything the Bohnacker twins have ever imagined....
