Dead people don't make great companions - something cute, athletic Ken finds out the hard way when, following an accident on the football field, he starts hearing ghostly voices. It's not the kind of gift he would have asked for, but there's nothing he can do about it, until an anonymous note invites him to a seance. Completely convinced by the medium he meets, Ken tries to tell her about his secret. Only his gifted classmates can save him from revealing the truth - and finding himself in terrible danger . . .

Praise for Gifted: Finders Keepers

Roundtable Reviews
I've been reading them from the start and can't imagine not wanting to get to know all of the students' powers... They're perfect for the middle school and early high school reader who enjoys a dose of paranormal.
