THIS MYSTERY HAS THEM IN A CHOKEHOLD.

Claire Hendricks can see ghosts. But that doesn't make solving murders any easier.

Pro-wrestling manager Ken King is convinced his late father Eddie is haunting his Brighton gym and he hires medium-turned-private-investigator Claire to help his beloved dad move on to the next life.

But Eddie can't because he's adamant he was murdered, and he tasks Claire with bringing his killer to justice.

In the world of pro-wrestling, can she work out what's real, who's faking and unmask the killer once and for all?
