Cassie, a young advertising account executive, learns that she can talk to the dead on her daily Highway 47 commute to the office. Meghann is a 16-year-old dead girl who loves to talk with Cassie about clothes and boys -- even Cassie's inappropriate boss, Ralph. Melvin T. Gotlink, a gentleman farmer who was killed on his tractor, provides the kind of homespun wisdom only someone dead can provide. When Casse's world is shaken, Melvin gives her insight and loyalty.
