Rule #1: If at all possible, donât pretend to be something youâre not. Specifically, donât play dead. Trust me on this one. I did it, so I should know.
Jo OâConnor has spent her whole life moving around. When it comes to new schools, thereâs not a trick in the book about starting over that Jo doesnât know. But life is about to teach her a new trick: how to disappear entirely.
Rule #2: Always expect the Spanish Inquisition, no matter what anyone else does.
They have to move again. Now. This very night. Jo knows better than to argue. Her dad is the key witness in a major case against a big-time bad guy. But Jo just canât resist one last visit to the school where sheâs been so happy. All she wants is to say good-bye. That canât cause any problems, can it?
Rule #3: Never assume you can predict the future.
Now Joâs one last visit has landed her smack in the middle of a ghost story. Specifically, her own. By the time itâs over, sheâll have a whole new set of rules about whatâs real, whatâs make-believe, andâmost of allâwhatâs important.
