Chuck's life takes a dramatic turn when she is murdered under mysterious circumstances, only to be brought back to life by Ned's touch.

Despite this limitation, Chuck remains determined to live her life to the fullest and make the most of her second chance at life.

As "The Alive-Again Girl," Chuck teams up with Ned and his private investigator partner, Emerson Cod, to solve murder cases and seek justice for the deceased.
