It's a near-future America where scientists have discovered how to talk to ghosts and the US Justice Department can now gather testimony from the ghosts of murder victims. John Klinger, lone technician at a desert listening station, spends his days (and nights) recording the testimony of the ghosts assigned to him. He soon commits his own crime : He falls in love with one of them. Her name is Emily--and there are men in the big city miles away who want her testimony...and are willing to do anything to get it.
