Summary

Odd Thomas suspects Danny's birth father, who was just released from jail, has kidnapped him after discovering his close friend Danny has been kidnapped and his stepfather brutally killed. 

Odd begins to explore as a result of this notion and is drawn down a water tunnel and into an abandoned hotel by his "psychic magnetism," Odd's ability to hunt out someone or what he is envisioning.

Odd discovers his friend tied up and strapped to a bomb inside. Danny tells Odd that his father did not kidnap him. 

Instead, Danny recalls calling a phone sex line and speaking with a woman named Datura because he was lonely as a result of a crippling bone illness. Danny had ultimately handed up the knowledge about Odd's "gift" after being captivated by her. When she realized this, she abducted Danny in order for Odd to disclose himself to her.

Odd walks away from Danny and discovers Datura in her room with two goons, Cheval Robert and Cheval Andre

She directs Odd to show her the ghosts. Odd reluctantly brings her to the hotel's casino, where he has previously seen numerous spirits and one poltergeist. 

When Datura offends a ghost, the angered poltergeist hurls things at them. Odd escapes Datura at this moment returns to Danny and deactivates the explosives. 

Odd goes to Datura's room and discovers a shotgun, which he used to assassinate Cheval Robert

Datura locates him using "reverse psychic magnetism," but while they are conversing, a mountain lion attacks her from behind. 

An enraged Cheval Andre pursues Odd through the hotel before Odd kills him in a sewer.

Odd dies in the sewer, and his soul pays three of his friends a visit. He resurrects, however, in front of the Blue Moon CafĂ©, with no memory of how he got there. 

He is initially upset by his survival, since his deepest desire is to be reunited with his soul-mate, Bronwen "Stormy" Llewellyn, in the hereafter. 

Odd follows Chief Porter to the hotel, where they return to get Danny from that dreadful location. 

Odd decides to work at a monastery high in the mountains for two months in order to find tranquility.
