Description

From beloved graphic novelist Whitney Gardner comes a big-hearted, touching, and spooky coming-of-age story about a young aspiring songwriter who forms a ghostly partnership with the pop star who haunts her secondhand piano.

The piano is free, but fame has a price.

On the sleepy streets of Cascade Cove, lonely Margot knows that when she stumbles across a discarded synthesizer with a not haunted sign, shes discovered the key to realizing her dreams. Determined to become a real songwriter and earn her absent fathers admiration, Margot dives headfirst into trying to gain followers and fans online. But her musical journey takes an unexpected turn when she realizes the (not haunted) piano is very muchhaunted.

Enter Vision, teen pop sensation of 1979 whose untimely demise left her spirit intertwined with the keys of her synthesizer. Though Margot and Vision couldnt be more different, the girls form an unlikely bond fueled by their shared passion for music.

But as Margots obsession with fame and recognition grows, she may come dangerously close to losing what she loves about musicand herself.
