Nejtemnější tajemství je nejtěžší vynést na světlo… Sylvestri Yarrow prožívá smolné období, jehož konec není na dohled. Po matčině smrti se ze všech sil snaží udržet rodinný přepravní podnik, ale kvůli vršícím se dluhům a stupňujícím se útokům Nihilů na nic netušící lodě jí hrozí, že přijde o vše, co jí po matce zbylo. Obrátí se o pomoc na hlavní svět galaxie Coruscant, ale tam se ocitne vtažena do sporů mezi dvěma nejmocnějšími rodinami Republiky o část vesmíru v pohraničí. Zaplést se do rodinné politiky je to poslední, co Sylvestri chce, ale příslib splacení velké části dluhu stačí, aby projevila zájem… Mezitím je povolána na Coruscant i rytířka Jedi Vernestra Rwoh, nemá však tušení, proč nebo kým. Ona a její padawan Imri Cantaros přilétají na hlavní svět spolu s mistrem Cohmacem Vitusem a jeho padawanem Reathem Silasem – a jsou požádáni, aby pomohli v majetkovém sporu v pohraničí. Jenže proč? Co je tak důležitého na prázdné části vesmíru? Odpověď dovede Vernestru k novému pochopení svých schopností a zavede Sylvestri zpět do minulosti… a k pravdám, které se nakonec vyjeví ze stínů.

The New York Times bestselling author of Dread Nation makes her middle grade debut with a sweeping tale of the ghosts of our past that won't stay buried, starring an unforgettable girl named Ophie. Ophelia Harrison used to live in a small house in the Georgia countryside. But that was before the night in November 1922, and the cruel act that took her home and her father from her. Which was the same night that Ophie learned she can see ghosts. Now Ophie and her mother are living in Pittsburgh with relatives they barely know. In the hopes of earning enough money to get their own place, Mama has gotten Ophie a job as a maid in the same old manor house where she works. Daffodil Manor, like the wealthy Caruthers family who owns it, is haunted by memories and prejudices of the past--and, as Ophie discovers, ghosts as well. Ghosts who have their own loves and hatreds and desires, ghosts who have wronged others and ghosts who have themselves been wronged. And as Ophie forms a friendship with one spirit whose life ended suddenly and unjustly, she wonders if she might be able to help--even as she comes to realize that Daffodil Manor may hold more secrets than she bargained for.
