When Leo Finn wakes up dead on a freezing Boston street corner, he discovers death came with a job: find Kevin Doyle, a sad-eyed delivery guy who's about to become the next victim. Tethered to Kevin like a grumpy ectoplasmic balloon, Leo watches as a shadowy figure in a black coat emerges from the darkness—a man who can control ice, command shadows, and apparently see ghosts. Together, the unlikely pair must unravel the mystery of an encrypted flash drive, a corporate conspiracy, and the unexpected power of a small green succulent. A story about finding warmth in the coldest places.
