Description: Violet Willoughby doesn't believe in ghosts ... but they believe in her. Violet has spent years taking part in her mother's elaborately faked seances, putting the rich and powerful in touch with the dead, and their success has brought them a life of luxury they could only have dreamed of and Violet the prospect of a society marriage. The last thing Violet expected was to start seeing and hearing the dead for real.

Violet must use her talents to unravel the mystery surrounding the girl's death - and quickly before the killer strikes again ...
