Something strange is happening in Ellerton
High. Phoenix is the fourth teenager to die within a year. His street
fight stabbing follows the deaths of Jonas, Summer and Arizona in
equally strange and sudden circumstances. Rumours of ghosts and strange
happenings rip through the small community as it comes to terms with
shock and loss. Darina, Phoenix's grief-stricken
girlfriend, is on the verge. She can't escape her intense heartache, or
the impossible apparitions of those that are meant to be dead. And all
the while the sound of beating wings echo inside her head... And then one day Phoenix appears to Darina. Ecstatic to be reunited, he
tells her about the Beautiful Dead. Souls in limbo, they have been
chosen to return to the world to set right a wrong linked to their
deaths and bring about justice. Beautiful, superhuman and powerful, they
are marked by a 'death mark' - a small tattoo of angel's wings. Phoenix
tells her that the sound of invisible wings beating are the millions of
souls in limbo, desperate to return to earth. Darina's
mission is clear: she must help Jonas, Summer, Arizona, and impossibly,
her beloved Phoenix, right the wrong linked to their deaths to set them
free from limbo so that they can finally rest in peace. Will love
conquer death? And if it does, can Darina set it free?
