Summary
By day Catherine Daly works for a printer. By night she awakens the dead for a few precious moments with loved ones seeking a final goodbye. This magic comes with a price: for every hour that a ghost is brought back, Catherine loses an hour from her own life. Tasked with collecting a timepiece from an old grave, she enlists Guy Nolan, the watchmaker's son, to help her dig it up. But instead of a timepiece, they find a surprise: the body of a teenage boy. And as they watch, he comes back to life-- with no memory of his past. For Catherine and Guy, this mysterious magic could mean the difference between life and death-- for all of them.
