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.
Heās okay with that. Itās 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 canāt quite recall, but thatās how itās supposed to be. Remembering could prevent Denis from moving on to whateverās next.
However, something is standing in his way. His twin brother Matt canāt let go of him, and as long as the living are holding on to his memory, Denis canāt 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 Mattās renewed interest in his brotherās passing is driving a wedge between his still-grieving parents.
Can the two boys solve the mystery of Denisās death without breaking apart the family heās left behind?
