Murray is a loner who loves nothing more than to go to the local cemetery and spend time with his "friends," the deceased. Murray can hear them, and he enjoys sitting with them and talking to them. All is well until the cemetery caretaker's daughter, Pearl, tries to befriend him, and at the same time, Murray begins to hear the voice of girl, Nikki, who has recently gone missing. Can Murray trust Pearl with his secret - that he can talk to dead people? Will Pearl believe him? And, can Murray piece the puzzle together and help Nikki's murderer be discovered without making a spectacle of his "ability"?
This story is told from multiple perspectives. Each chapter is the voice of one of the main characters. At times the perspectives complicate the story, and the amount of characters adds to the confusion, but those who are willing to stay with the book and read it quickly will enjoy it and not fall into too much confusion.
Overall, I liked the mystery element of the book, but it wasn't ALL that I hoped for... would definitely recommend it though.
