High school is difficult enough, but when you're dead, it comes with an entirely different set of problems. Ophelia is a fifteen-year-old spirit who found sanctuary in The Academy of Souls, a school for teen souls who haven't found their way to the next life. When the spirit of her younger sister, Haven, is kidnapped, Ophelia refuses to move on without her.

But searching for Haven isn't the only issue Ophelia is forced to face. Her soul still has a link to her former body, creating even more obstacles. To add to her already confusing afterlife, she finds herself mesmerized by a new student, a seventeen-year-old boy who is very much alive.
