Elisa Cameron is dead—murdered in cold blood. One intrepid reporter will not stop until she finds the perpetrator, even if it means crawling through the depths of hell to do it. That reporter is Elisa Cameron herself, risen from the grave as the spectral avenger Ghost! She won’t rest in peace until she delivers a double dose of .45 caliber retribution to the wicked criminals who killed her. Ghost’s journey to the truth follows a dark, twisted path through the mean streets and corrupt towers of Arcadia, and the revelations she unearths may not lead to redemption, but damnation.
