In a world where superpowers are registered, regulated, and sold as entertainment, Lucia Knight develops an ability no one believed was possible. She can reach the dead. Every soul carries memories, secrets, and perhaps even the power it held in life. That makes Lucia more valuable and more dangerous than any living hero. The world will try to own her. The dead may be the only ones willing to help her fight back.
