      Jason ha un problema: non ricorda nulla. Si è svegliato su un autobus scolastico pieno di ragazzi che stanno andando in gita. A quanto pare, la sua ragazza si chiama Piper e il suo migliore amico è Leo. Ma come è arrivato fin lì, Jason? E dove si trova esattamente "qui"? Jason non sa nulla, solo che le cose non vanno bene. Piper ha un segreto. Suo padre, un attore famoso, è scomparso tre giorni fa, e lei è sicura che sia in pericolo perché lo vede nei sogni; anzi, più precisamente in un terribile incubo che non riesce a comprendere. Come non riesce a capire perché all'improvviso il suo ragazzo non la riconosca! Dopo una tempesta improvvisa, appaiono delle creature strane che portano i tre amici in un luogo chiamato Campo Mezzosangue. Leo ha un'ossessione per gli attrezzi. Quando vede che la sua stanza del campo è piena di attrezzi elettrici e pezzi meccanici, si sente a casa. Ma è tutto molto strano; tutti parlano di una maledizione e della scomparsa di alcuni campeggiatori. E la cosa più strana è che la gente di quel posto insiste che ognuno di loro è legato a un dio. Questo potrebbe avere a che fare con l'amnesia di Jason? O con il fatto che Leo continui a vedere fantasmi?
