Written by award-winning author Tony Abbott and perfect for fans of
The Ethan I Was Before and The Thing About Jellyfish, this
bittersweet middle grade novel follows the ghost of Denis Egan as he
teams up with his living twin brother to solve the mystery of his
death.**
Denis Egan is dead.
He's okay with that. It's been five years since he died, and the place
where souls go is actually pretty nice. Sure, there are some things
about his life and how it ended he can't quite recall, but that's how
it's supposed to be. Remembering could prevent Denis from moving on to
whatever's next.
However, something is standing in his way. His twin brother Matt can't
let go of him, and as long as the living are holding on to his memory,
Denis can't rest in peace.
To uncover the truth about what happened that day five years before,
Denis returns to his hometown and teams up with Matt. But visiting for
too long has painful consequences for Denis, and Matt's renewed interest
in his brother's passing is driving a wedge between his still-grieving
parents.
Can the two boys solve the mystery of Denis's death without breaking
apart the family he's left behind?
