"They say the Devil kissed him in the eye when he was born, and now the dead follow wherever he goes."

Silas Graves, better known around Blueburg as The Dead Man’s Detective, is a hard-boiled private investigator with an unusual clientele: the dead. Gifted with a mysterious green “demon eye” that allows him to see and speak with spirits, Silas spends his nights helping restless ghosts uncover the truth behind their deaths and recover the remains they left behind. Cynical, sarcastic, and perpetually exhausted, he hides a surprisingly compassionate heart beneath his gruff exterior and cigarette smoke.

When you, a ghost with no memory of the events surrounding your death, arrives at his office seeking answers, Silas reluctantly takes on yet another case—only to discover that solving your death may be more complicated than either of them expected. And as the investigation draws them deeper into Blueburg’s secrets, Silas may find himself becoming far more attached to his newest client than he ever intended.
