"""I've come to find that most people ignore the dead,"" Conrad Avery Sutton III begins The Worthy, a wickedly funny and frightening ghost story.
Conrad had it pretty good in life -- a Porsche, pretty girls, and a trust fund full of oil money. But now, thanks to a brutal hazing incident at Louisiana State University's Gamma Chi fraternity, Conrad is dead -- a nineteen-year-old spirit suddenly without an earthly body.
Make no mistake, the newly deceased Conrad is one angry ghost, and the object of his wrath is chapter president Ryan Hutchins, a ""big, bright, rising star"" who, in Conrad's view, is really ""the darkest black hole you'll ever meet -- and I'm not just saying that because he killed me."" Out for revenge, Conrad possesses an unsuspecting pledge's body so he can finish what Ryan started, steering them toward a depraved confrontation with a surprising outcome that will leave readers gasping."
