A haunted inn. A murdered grandfather. A mystery that reaches beyond the grave.

Twelve-year-old Lila is determined to reinvent herself after losing her friends, but her summer takes a terrifying turn when her estranged grandfather dies and her family travels to Ohio to settle his affairs. Soon, Lila begins seeing mysterious figures no one else can see. Then her grandfather's ghost reveals a shocking secret: he was murdered, and the Victorian inn he left behind is far more than a place to stay. It's a portal between the world of the living and the realm of the dead!

With the help of her skeptical brother and a ghost-obsessed new friend, Lila must uncover the killer's identity and stop dangerous spirits from crossing into the human world. Can the girl who's determined to be less dramatic become the hero this supernatural mystery needs?

Packed with ghostly encounters, eerie secrets, and thrilling twists, this imaginative adventure proves that some mysteries are too big to stay buried!
