A chill falls over Christina Hardy's housewarming party when talk turns to a recent murder that has all the hallmarks of the so-called 34;Interstate Killer34; murders from fifteen years before. To lighten the mood, the guests drag out an old Ouija board for a little spooky fun8230;and that's when things become truly terrifying. Summoned by the Ouija board, the restless spirit of Beau Kidd, the lead detectivemdash;and chief suspectmdash;on the original case, seeks Christina's help: the latest killing isn't a copycat crime, and he wants his name cleared. Back in the real world, cop-turned-writer Jed Braden is skeptical of Christina's ghostly encounters, but his police sources confirm all the intimate details of the casemdash;her otherworldly source is reliable, and the body count is growing. The spirits are right. The Interstate Killer is still out there, and Christina's life is hanging in the balance between this world and the next.
When Christina Hardy inherits her grandparents' house in central Florida, she has no idea that anything odd is about to take place. But when an Ouija board is brought out at a welcome party at the house, Christina finds herself haunted by the spirit of a man named Beau Kidd, who died years ago, believed to have been the killer responsible for a series of murders. Now Christina finds herself, along with her ex (and ex-detective) Jed Braden, in a race against time to discover the truth about the so-called "Interstate Killer murders" before it's too late.
