Eddie Proffit lost everything. In the same week both his father and his best friend died. As his best friend comes back as a ghost and "haunts" him by giving Eddie advice, he finds condolence in a book written by an author whose other books were banned. He did not choose, however, to read it, as it was assigned. Now the Reverend Tarter is trying to get the book banned and Eddie will have to do some serious detective work to beat Tarter's allies on the school board.
