All Brody wanted was to slack off, make some quick cash, and get back together with his ex-girlfriend. But Talia--a teenage ghost--has other plans: she thinks Brody's just the guy to help her earn her way into the afterlife by catching the Penny Murderer, a serial killer who's targeting a series of young women. Under the instruction of ghost samurai Kagemura, Brody has toughened his body and honed his supernatural senses. But Brody gets more than he bargained for when his extrasensory visions hurl him straight into the twisted, murderous mind of the perpetrator himself.
