About this audiobook
Written by award-winning author Tony Abbott and perfect for fans of The Ethan I Was Before and The Thing About Jellyfish, this bittersweet middle grade novel follows the ghost of Denis Egan as he teams up with his living twin brother to solve the mystery of his death.
Denis Egan is dead.
He’s okay with that. It’s been five years since he died, and the place where souls go is actually pretty nice. Sure, there are some things about his life and how it ended he can’t quite recall, but that’s how it’s supposed to be. Remembering could prevent Denis from moving on to whatever’s next.
However, something is standing in his way. His twin brother Matt can’t let go of him, and as long as the living are holding on to his memory, Denis can’t rest in peace.
To uncover the truth about what happened that day five years before, Denis returns to his hometown and teams up with Matt. But visiting for too long has painful consequences for Denis, and Matt’s renewed interest in his brother’s passing is driving a wedge between his still-grieving parents.
Can the two boys solve the mystery of Denis’s death without breaking apart the family he’s left behind?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Absolutely amazing! I loved this book so much. Toby Abbott has made yet another great story.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5“The purpose of death, as you know, is to become clean. As clean as clear glass.”And that starts in Port Haven, for Denis Egan, the place where souls go. Denis was seven years old when he was murdered, five years ago. And now he is “haunted” by his twin brother Matt, who is still alive. Together, they decide to find out what actually happened to Denis, and who was responsible for his death.This book was recommended by my 13 year old daughter, and she was right! It's a touching story about brothers, families, and the afterlife. Even though it is written for the middle school crowd, I found it to be a good, and quick, read for an adult! Good choice Georgia!
