Sixteen year-old Echo Stone awakens in a cold sweat in a
dark room, having no idea where she is or how she got there.
But she soon finds out she’s in Middle House, an orphanage
filled with mysteriously troubled kids. There’s just one problem: she’s not an orphan. Her parents
are very much alive. She explains this to everyone, but no one will listen. After
befriending a sympathetic (and handsome) boy, Echo is able
to escape Middle House and rush home, only to discover it
sealed off by crime scene tape and covered in the evidence
of a terrible and violent crime. As Echo grapples with this
world-shattering information, she spots her parents driving
by and rushes to flag them down. Standing in the middle of
street, waving her arms to get their attention, her parents’
car drives right through her. She was right. Her parents are alive—but she’s not. She’s a ghost, just like all the other denizens of Middle
House. Desperate to somehow get her life back and reconnect
with her still-alive boyfriend, Echo embarks on a quest to
solve her own murder. As the list of suspects grows, the
quest evolves into a journey of self-discovery in which she
learns she wasn’t quite the girl she thought she was. In a
twist of fate, she’s presented with one last chance to
reclaim her life and must make a decision which will either
haunt her or bless her forever.
