Victoria McQueen ima dar za pronalaženje stvari. Sve što treba učiniti je provozati se na svome motociklu kroz natkriveni drveni most Kraticu i naći će se upravo tamo gdje treba biti… Tu svoju “sposobnost” krije jer zna da je ljudi u njezinoj okolini ne bi razumjeli. Sve do trenutka kada shvati da nije jedina s posebnim darom. Charlie Manx ima cool auto, Rolls-Royce Utvaru iz 1938. godine. Sva ga djeca vole, pogotovo registraciju kojom odražava svoju taštinu: NOS4A2. Nema ništa bolje nego kada ih Charlie Manx provoza… niz ulicu… izvan grada… a onda jako, jako daleko. Nema povratka kad se jednom provozaju u toj Utvari. To su sada Charlijeva djeca… osim Vic McQueen. Ona je jedina koja je ikad uspjela pobjeći iz njegovih ralja. No kraj jedne noćne more postao je početak bitke umova na život ili smrt… bitke koja će eksplodirati dvadeset i pet godina kasnije. Jer sada je Charlie Manx ugrabio njezinog sina i Vic McQueen kreće u pohod da bi ga vratila ili umrla pokušavajući…

Francis is unhappy, picked on; he doesn’t have a life, a hope, a chance. Francis was human once, but that’s behind him now. John Finney is in trouble. The kidnapper locked him in a basement, a place stained with the blood of half a dozen other murdered children. With him, in his subterranean cell, is an antique phone, long since disconnected…but it rings at night, anyway, with calls from the dead… Previously published as 20th Century Ghosts
