  Fourteen-year-old Peter Green can’t remember how he died. 
   All he has are his pajamas, a silk tie, and a one-way bus ticket to Mrs. Battisworth’s Academy and Haven for Unliving Boys and Girls, a strange and spooky school for dead orphans like himself. But that’s all he needs. The Unliving Academy has everything, from vampires in the hallways to monsters in the cafeteria to ghosts in the basement. And that’s just the teachers; the students are far stranger. 
  As Pete learns to fit in with his new supernatural schoolmates, he starts to discover his own uniquely undead abilities, and even begins enjoying his life after death...but he just can’t shake the feeling that he’s forgotten something (or somebody!) important. Somebody he left behind in the land of the living. Somebody he loved very much. 
  Somebody who’s in terrible danger.
