He sees things other kids don't see. Things he shouldn't see. Ghosts. Monsters. Ghouls. And now, they want him dead. Sebastian's home is no longer safe . . . and the only place that will take him in is Gallowgate Academy, where students are taught to hunt the things that haunt them. There are some lessons, though, that the school doesn't want to teach Sebastian. Secrets about his deadly family history that refuse to stay in the shadows. For Sebastian, fighting the dead might be hard . . . but it's the living who may destroy him.
