Something that she's never done before. But she just read a book about speaking with the dead so what could go wrong?Laney finds that contacting the dead was the easy part. Controlling the ethereal intruders is a whole other problem. The ghostly party crashers threaten to turn the house upside down. One even tries to possess Kody! If Laney can't get the spirits to return to their realm, the whole town will be flooded with destructive ghastly ghouls. Will Laney be able to fix the mess she made and avoid utter humiliation?
