Synopsis
What happens to your spirit when you die?
SERIES OVERVIEW: A comet collision is imminent. A secret Gamma Outburst Directional Cannon (the GOD Cannon) may be Earth’s only hope. 10-year-old Travis drowns, and his spirit begins to rise and stretch into the spirit-sphere. Untested, the GOD Cannon has adverse effects when fired at the comet. The weapon tears a hole in the unseen spirit world that encompasses Earth. Ascending spirit strings of Travis and other recently-deceased persons are severed by the GOD Cannon and become entangled. The five tangled spirits crash back to Earth. But in the wrong bodies. Christy is devastated as Travis lay lifeless. Suddenly, a spirit crashes back into Travis’ body, and he wakes. But he is disoriented, angry, violent and only speaks Spanish. With her ex-husband’s help, Christy must fight her beliefs and find their son’s missing spirit. And what happened to the four other tangled spirits?
