Curtis doesn't know how he came to haunt Thornfield Manor, a beautiful but empty house in the middle of the California mountains. All he knows is the boredom of his ghostly existence: trapped, alone, with pieces of his memory slowly falling away.Then one day a young woman shows up. Charlotte Landry has returned to her childhood home to discard an embarrassing "coping device"-an imaginary friend named Jenny. Jenny has purple eyes, a vivid imagination, and the disturbing propensity to think on her own. Curtis can see Jenny. Jenny can see Curtis.For the first time in years, Curtis has company. Jenny brings fun, frustration, and hope to his non-life. The more time Curtis spends with Jenny, the closer he comes to solving the mystery of his past. But as he grows attached, Curtis fears what will happen to Jenny once he's ready to cross over-for he suspects this unloved imaginary friend is more than what she appears.
