Ghostly

He thought ghosting was just a dating term...

Hotshot attorney Gabriel Vane was on the fast track to partnership at one of the city's most prestigious law firms - until a judge caught him kissing a client and clipped the legal eagle's wings with a six-month suspension.

Gabriel agrees to vanish from the public eye until his suspension is over, trading his luxurious high-rise apartment for a forgotten Victorian home - but as soon as he moves in, he discovers he's not alone beneath the soaring chambered ceilings. He has nosy neighbors, bad plumbing... and a peppy ghost with anxiety issues.

Eternal incorporeal life has its perks, but after decades of binge-watching reality television and devouring lifestyle magazines, Ida Huxley is thrilled for the company of a living, breathing human - even if he is a cynical, workaholic snob. Even better, Gabriel offers to fulfill his part of a supernatural contract that could finally allow Ida to pass onto the other side and end her eternal exile.

But as Ida guides Gabriel in fulfilling the obligations of the contract, the two of them discover a connection too powerful to ignore - and when Gabriel learns there's a chance to return Ida to the world of the living, everything changes between them.

Now the race is on to give Ida a second chance at life - but they need to do so before Gabriel inadvertently completes the terms of their original contract, banishing Ida to the afterlife forever.
