It's bad enough that Echo already has ghosts haunting her 24/7, now her past mistakes want to join the fun and come back to haunt her, too?
Moving to Georgia was supposed to be a fresh start. So far, it's turned out to be a fresh start at more chaos. After battling Devourers for the soul of her childhood friend, Echo learns the depth of what her abilities might cost her. She's always been pretty good at failure, which is concerning when the fate of the spiritual world is suddenly in your hands.
If that isn't enough pressure already, Echo's personal life is a mess. She and Malachi are both freaked out by her ability to control him and have no idea whether their relationship was ever based on more than their bond as Medium and Keeper. Kyran is keeping his distance from both of them to keep from doing something stupid, things are still tense with her parents, college is proving more than she bargained for, Agent Morton is doubting stability and brings in his son Griffin to help keep her ground-which only causes more problems between her and pretty much everyone, and Echo gets pulled into her first case: a young boy whose mysterious injuries and claims of monsters in his dreams has everyone baffled and terrified of what it might mean if he isn't lying.
Oh yeah, and a past mistake Echo thought had already been dealt with is back to settle a score. It can't get much worse than that, right? Except, for Echo, things can always get worse.
