Carrie Reese doesnt believe in ghostsuntil she falls in love with one. From the moment he walks through the door, a cool breeze surrounds Carrie. She knows Lucas is too good to be true...and he is. Because hes dead. Devastated over her parents divorce, 17 year-old Carrie is spending the summer with her grandparents in Villiscathe creepiest town in Iowa. Even though it makes her skin crawl, Carrie doesnt regard the haunting of the infamous Moore House to be anything more than superstition. Lucas, however, knows exactly why the mysterious farmhouse should be avoided. But thats not what brings him to town. As a ghost, he cannot cross over into the afterlife until he finds his soul, and theres someone in Villisca who can help. Instead, he finds Carrie. And theres something about her that draws him in. Why didnt he find her sooner? Like, when he was alive? When the force of their love disrupts the containment spell around the Moore House, the rift to Hell inside the attic opens, releasing the demons. Since love isnt meant to be shared between the living and the dead, the demons target the lovers, intent on dragging them to where their souls will face eternal destruction. Sometimes theres more at risk than merely dying.
