When Owen makes contact, Wil can't resist the opportunity to finally study a real spirit, even if it means helping Owen close his last case. But what begins as a thrilling supernatural partnership quickly spirals into something far more sinister. As Wil is pulled deeper into the mystery of Owen's death, he discovers that the living aren't always who they appear to be — and the dead can't be trusted either.
