In a new home, a new town, and a new school, Nick feels more alone than ever. His father has buried himself in his job, and his mother isn?t around to help. It seems like things can?t get much worse, but then his class goes on a field trip to the Silverado Ghost Town. With no friends to vouch for him, Nick is framed for stealing a museum artifact: the journal of the notorious Slim Marano, who was hanged for murder more than 100 years ago. Just when he's sure that no one will believe him, Nick comes face-to-face with Slim's spirit and discovers that they have something in common: they were both set up. Soon Nick is traveling through time to the Old West to help Slim prove his innocence. Working with Slim's band of friends, both spirits and mortals, they unearth a conspiracy of vengeance, greed, and murder fueled by dark forces. With danger building and time running out, Nick must discover the truth to save innocent lives and change his own forever.
