For Matthew Graham, being given the gift of his former Scottish manor is a dream come true. For his wife, Alex, this gift will force her to undertake a perilous sea journey, leaving most of their extensive family in the Colony of Maryland. Alex is torn apart by this, but staying behind while her husband travels to Scotland is no option. Scotland in 1688 is a divided country, torn between the papist Stuart King and the foreign Protestant William of Orange. Popular opinion is with Dutch William, and Matthew's reluctance to openly support him does not endear him to his former friends.

Peter Green’s exploits in the world of the Unliving have earned him quite the reputation, but some are still questioning if he’s the real deal. In fact, he’s not too sure himself if his first great and successful adventure wasn’t just… a stroke of luck, perhaps? However, he won’t get any time to figure it out—his uncle needs him and two new friends to venture out on a mission. And not just any mission… Vicious pirates, killer, shape-shifting mermaids, and danger unlike any they’ve ever faced await Peter and his friends. Failure is NOT an option.

Fourteen-year-old Peter Green can’t remember how he died.

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.

Thankfully, he seems to be getting a grasp of his “Other” abilities–his magic abilities–and it's starting to give him an edge in the battle against the victims of the otherworld. But what happens when disaster strikes where it hurts him the most, and his new best friends are placed in great danger? This may not be a mission that Peter and his friends return from.
