Lee just wants her dad back. But the land of the dead is a dangerous place. When her father dies, Lee's life is torn apart. The only comfort she finds is in the complete darkness of her closet, where she sleeps at night. When she discovers the darkness leads to the afterlife, she hatches a plan--to find her dad and bring him back home. With the help of four very talkative, very dead companions she finds trapped in the darkness, she sets off on a quest through the afterworlds. But a little live girl does not belong there. Lee will have to face frightening dangers and use all her courage and cunning if she wishes to save her father, her friends, and herself.
