'Life’s been tough on Sophie Teague.
'Since her parents died in a freak motorbike accident, she’s been living with her gran in their rundown pub. And she’s just enrolled at a new school, desperate for a fresh start.
'That’s until ‘Eve’, a beautiful ghost clad in black, starts making terrifying nightly appearances in Sophie’s bedroom.
'Eve doesn’t speak, or write—she just hovers, transmitting images and pleading for Sophie’s help.
'What happened to Eve? Does it have something to do with the recent murder that sent a notorious bikie-gang leader on the run?
'Sophie isn’t sure—but she knows Eve won’t stop haunting her until she finds out. So with the unlikely help of her enigmatic classmate Jordan Haig, Sophie sets out to unravel the mystery.
'Dark, thrilling and utterly spooky, Afterlight will take you deep into the heart of a dangerous love story, revealing the unworldly—and deadly—pull of the past.' (Publication summary)
