Things that are going wrong for Nina Dean:She has the neighbour from hell.

Her friendships are fracturing, and so is her parents’ marriage.

Just as everything ought to be falling into place, it’s all falling apart instead. Nina’s beloved dad’s memory is slipping away from him, and her mum is caught in a baffling mid-life glow-up.

The last thing she needs is another ghost.
