Arryn woke up in a plane crash. She doesn't know where she is or why she was even on a plane in the first place. But what she does know is that the island has a gate holding back terrifying monsters. This gate has a clock on it, a countdown, and every time someone dies the number goes down. They call it The Ticker. Not a problem, the people are learning to sustain themselves. But when a murderer begins picking off people one by one, Arryn begins to wonder about who made The Ticker, why a murder makes the number drop more than just a natural death, and what happens when The Ticker runs out.

Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
