But a storm is brewing, and the Haint of All Haints is awake. Unwilling to watch his home be destroyed, Perry will sacrifice everything to save it. Nine songs of power have escaped from the piano that maintains the citys beat, and without them, Nola will fail. So when the citys Great Magician starts appearing in odd places and essential songs are forgotten, Perry knows trouble is afoot. Perry knows Nolas rhythm as intimately as his own heartbeat.

To those from Away, Nola might seem strange. A place of sky trolleys and dead cabs, where haints dance the night away and Wise Women help keep the order.
