Poor Iris Brave: her father dies, he's held culpable, and her mother goes broke trying to pay the damages. But: Iris' s dad Micah Isn't really deceased, and he was not at fault: he was framed. He isn't "dead" because he's a soul jumper, and he took over an adolescent boy's body. And much to her surprise, Iris discovers she is a soul jumper too.
