It's home to the pyschic Giordano sisters, who have a way of getting mixed up in mysteries. During their investigations, they run across everything from pom-pom-shaking vampires to shape-shifting boyfriends to a clue-spewing jukebox. With their psychic powers and some sisterly support, they can crack any case! <p/>Teenage girls are being mysteriously attacked all over town, including at Nightshade High School, where Daisy Giordano is a junior.

Samantha appears a little . . . well, dead, and all the most popular kids at school are copying her style. <p/>Is looking dead just another fashion trend for Samantha, or is there something more sinister going on?
