Four months ago, Nathan had everything he wanted in life: he had Emma.
Three months ago, he died.
Death hasn't been easy. The only people who can see the dead are Necromancers and their Queen. And you don't want to piss off the Queen of the Dead. She's brilliant light and fire, and if there's no actual hell, she can make a personal one, just for you.
But all she seems to want for Nathan is to send him home -- where he can see the people he loved, even if they can't see him. He doesn't know why. He doesn't care. If he goes home, he can finally see...
EMMA
Four months ago, Emma was in love with Nathan.
Three months ago, he died.
One month ago, Emma began to see the dead. They look exactly the way they appeared before they died; she knows. She's seen her father. She's even argued with him.
Seeing the dead has made her life vastly more complicated. People want to kill her. People want to kidnap her and force her to truly become a Necromancer. People want to kill her friends, just because they know her.
But even if she could get rid of this strange power, she wouldn't, because if it's gone, she'll never see Nathan again...
But the Queen of the Dead has plans of her own, for both Nathan and Emma.
