Daphne
It's Kit Lamb's last summer with her high school basketball team, before college and the rest of her life begins. The night before the big game, her teammate tells a ghost story about a girl from their school named Daphne. Some say she was murdered, others that she died by her own hand. But some say that Daphne was - or is - a murderer herself. That she appears anytime someone thinks about her - to kill again. As her teammates vanish, one by one, Kit must find the truth behind the legend. Or the summer of a lifetime will become the last summer of her life.
