Clover Bennett has been trapped in the foster system for seven years when she's finally given a chance to live with an aunt she's never met in the sleepy Pennsylvania town of Ravenwood. Well, Raven's town, as it is more formally known. She's enjoying finally feeling safe again when the tattoo tearing itself into her skin reminds her; she's not. 
 
Clover and her ghostly partner, Chrono, are tossed into the mysterious death of one of the towns foundering families, Bishop Oswald. She is thrown down the stairs by one of the houses less than playful ghosts. His death is none of her business, but the spirits are her business. She takes herself out of the Detectives line of sight and attempts to meet the ghosts when she's met with a more dangerous foe. With only a week before the opening of the town's new history museum and the revelation that a Banshee is haunting the premise, Clover is forced to play nice with a Detective she doesn't trust and his partner who doesn't trust her. The more the Detectives discover about the man's strange death, the more unusual it becomes. The more Clover learns about the Oswald family's carefully hidden past, the more she realizes the dead have everything to do with what's been happening to the living. In fact, the family's tale of suicide and death goes back a very, very, long time. Worst of all, the closer the opening of the Museum gets, the more the three are beginning to learn their separate cases are connected. 
 
Will Clover and the Detectives be able to stop the Banshee and the murderer in time for the Museum opening? Or will Clover fail to save lives once again?
