After her father is wrongfully accused of a crime he didn't commit, fifteen-year-old Sophie Cooper volunteers for an internship at a Miami TV news station. Between logging tapes and fetching coffee, she secretly investigates South Florida's rampant paranormal activity in order to clear her family's name -- and unwittingly stumbles upon a secret, supernatural conspiracy that threatens the entire world.
