The narration is performed by Kris Koscheski and Carla Mercer-Meyer. The performance is far better this time and they bring Alexis and the other characters to life.
Alexis Delaney is an average 17-year-old, except for the fact that she can talk to the dead. She can see them and help them move on. In that case, she isn’t so typical after all. However, the dead can’t move on because the Viel is shut off and the Way is closed. Thus, with nowhere to go, they are camping out on her law. Meanwhile, Alexis is trying to open the Way, manage school, and deal with feelings for two of her best friends.
