Cara Tang is a ghost speaker. A fact she’s kept secret all her life at her mom’s demand. To preserve their fragile relationship, Cara does her best to be a dutiful Chinese daughter. But she can’t cut Laolao (who’s a ghost in the attic) out of her life the way her mom did. And she’s constantly getting into fights with Zacharias Coleson—the school’s golden boy whose smirk makes her want to set things on fire.
When Cara stumbles over Zach in the woods, seemingly dead from a magic snake bite and now haunting her as a sarcastic ghost, she’s tempted to leave him to rot. But when he offers her money—money she desperately needs for college—she agrees to help resurrect him. (And if she’s honest, she’s pretty sure school would be boring without their explosive spats.) Finding the antidote means traveling to the end of a mystical river, confronting monsters, unearthing a generational feud, and worst of all, facing her growing attraction to Zach.
With only seven days to save him, Cara must embrace the ghost speaking heritage she’s spent a lifetime ignoring—a heritage that threatens to sever the tenuous threads tying her to her mother and that places her in the crosshairs of a decades-old ghost.
