One day, out of nowhere and for an unknown reason, something—or someone—appears over the right shoulder of one man, shadowing his every step and literally breathing down his neck. Desperate for answers, he turns to his psychic ex-girlfriend, who offers him only a cryptic warning: The ghost is here for a reason. And soon, you’ll have to make a choice. What choice? And what price will he have to pay?
