Mind the Gap

Elle Peterssen is young, wealthy, and beautiful - and there is a reason someone tried to kill her. Only, Elle doesn't remember any of this. MIND THE GAP, the new series by the Eisner Award-winning writer Jim McCann, is a mystery with a paranormal twist. Elle, in a spirit form detached from her comatose body, must not only unravel the mystery of her attacker's identity and motive but her entire life as well. Who can she trust, in both this word and in the gap she exists in that lies between life and death? Filled with twists and turns, Elle's life isn't the only one turned upside down by the attack on her life. Deceit, secrets, and hidden agendas are everywhere in a story where everyone is a suspect, and no one is innocent.

Mind the Gap starts with Elle getting attacked on a subway platform for unknown reasons, leaving her comatose. Rather than this being a "women in refrigerators" style plot point for some hero to rescue, we soon learn that her consciousness is very much intact and interacting with other unconscious individuals in a sort of creepy psychic limbo called "The Garden." For as yet unknown reasons Elle is being guided in The Garden by Blake Robert Plangman, who prefers to be called "Bobby." Bobby seems to have good intentions with Elle but only time will tell if we can trust him or anyone else in Elle's world.
