Ariel Fontansia is ten pounds away from total relapse. Since the previous summer, she has been stuck in a vicious cycle of calories, pounds, and inches. Redemption, Maine, isn't another escape -- it's a dead end. With no one to keep her disorder in check and hallucinations of a dead cousin driving her insane, she falls into an isolation that could prove detrimental. Standing in her way is a black-eyed boy with an anger complex: Price Olsen, who wants her to see more than the bad side of his grief. With an absentee father and a mute little sister, he recognizes the signs of someone on the edge. He wants to save Ariel, but up until this point, he's had a nasty penchant for ruining relationships. When her best friend overdoses, Ariel is forced to face the deterioration of her own mind and body. Price, frustrated by his inability to help her, fights the anger that threatens to take an ugly twist. As their fragile friendship teeters, another bruised, broken teenager chasing reconciliation stumbles through their lives. Yet she isn't just another damsel; this girl has a history in Redemption that involves the death of Ariel's cousin. Peaceful lives unraveling, all three discover that Redemption is harboring a secret with dangerous consequences. Now, they will be forced to face their past - and their present - to determine the course of their future. But how far are they willing to go for redemption?

Who knew a single violin could start a world war? Mauray Hestinska was simply poor. A small shack on 34th street was what she called home; gray would be what she called life. But that all changes with a single robbery. Hamillia Gonies was a selfish person, and a selfish ghost she will be. Her house was the biggest in town, her treasures were amazing. Mauray sneaks in the day of her death. The jewels, crystals, gems, precious stones, and diamonds were all neatly piled in a secret room on the third floor, one that Mauray could easily reach in seconds. But Hamillia Goniez's treasure isn't the only thing there. A violin, with golden accents, sitting in its own little sanctuary, in a dazzling box, becomes an item of Mauray's interests the moment she sees it. In two short months she achieves what many could never, in two short months she causes a dispute, slowly growing and infesting minds and causing problems, getting bigger everyday, until a single person dares to do something simple but cruel at the same time. That's when everything really turns for the worse.

When Cassie Taylor talks, ghosts listen. She wants to heal their souls so they can leave earth.
