After witnessing her best friend's death in a car accident, Jade finds it hard to make new friends, especially since Vicky's ghost comes back and jealously prevents her from trying. Class clown "Fatboy" Sam and Jade's teachers reach out to help. Set in England (with British-flavored language), this ghost story can be read lightly, yet it grapples with serious issues of grieving and moving on.
