Finn O'Conner seemingly has it all. Popularity, charm, and the cliche role of star quarterback. To his classmates, he's the perfect example of a straight, confident jock, effortlessly navigating the world of high school with sports and locker room camaraderie. But beneath the surface lies a truth he's been hiding for years. Finn has a longstanding crush on Archie Hollow, the schools outcast surrounded by a whirlwind of strange rumors. After years of silence, Finn takes a leap of faith, hoping to bridge the divide between them. But Archie isn't just the misunderstood loner Finn had first imagined. He's a medium, someone who communicates with the dead. As their lives intertwine, Finn becomes the target of a sinister, otherworldly force. What begins as a journey of self-discovery spirals into a fight for survival. The ambiguous entity feeding on Finn's fears grows stronger by the day, threatening to unravel not only his sense of self but the thin barrier between the living and the dead.
