Painter Mann never imagined that being dead would be so, well, deadly. Not for him--

but if he and his friends fail, every living person on the planet will die.

It's a lot to take in for a ghost who just wanted to be a good private detective.

Now, to defeat the creator of the InBetween, Voodoo Cher, Painter must take out the four

remaining machines that can power her army of the dead.

His first stop: Scotland.

There, Painter encounters William Hare, the infamous serial killer, who is now helping

Voodoo Cher. With the help of long-dead revolutionaries and a crew of ancient sailors,

Painter must take down the machine being constructed on the Scottish coastline.

But his greatest ally comes from Raz's past, not Painter's: an elderly pilot named Uncle

Jerry.

And the more he learns about his former self, ex-disk jockey Raz Frewer, the more he

begins to transform back into he once was. That should be comforting. Self-realization

and all of that.

But there was a reason why he'd hidden his identity all this time-- even from himself.

Raz Frewer is being hunted.
