A thrilling supernatural adventure: dark, funny, with twists at
every turn. The sequel to Thirteen Days of Midnight, shortlisted

one of the most popular boys at school. That was before his
necromancer father died and left him a host of vengeful ghosts that

worse, the mysterious new girl at school is actually the daughter
of his father's deadliest enemy... And she's out for revenge.

from an avalanche of waste. On the way, he discovers a hidden world
brimming with storytelling magic.

almost too painful to bear.Jamie thinks he can use game theory -

his sister's life at risk?A brilliant, page-turning YA novel from a
superb storyteller.
