Former Olympian and Arizona native Brenna Battle's crazy dream of running her very own judo school for kids in tiny, historic Bonney Bay isn't exactly off to a great start. She has a grand total of one student signed up, but she's determined to succeed even if it means going door to door. Brenna's search for judo recruits takes her inside the infamous haunted Reiner House, where she befriends a confused old man named Harvey, and finds herself at the scene of the second murder since her arrival in Bonney Bay.Brenna butts heads with Will Riggins, AKA Officer Dimples, when the poisoning of Derek Thompson is pinned on his uncle, Harvey Thompson. Harvey claims the ghosts of Reiner House are responsible. Brenna, busy battling the ghosts of her past failures and heartaches as she tries to get her business off the ground, is determined to prove there's an earthly explanation for Derek's murder. One that will set Harvey free, not only from jail, but from the torment of the "spirits" inhabiting Reiner House.
