Sometimes when life haunts you, you're better off becoming the ghost.
Emil Simon feels invisible enough. He counts as a nonentity at his elite preparatory school and makes barely a dent in his father's thoughts. When his older brother runs away, he entrusts Emil with a master key to Caramoor Academy. Soon Emil is sneaking into the school at night to explore...and falling for a faculty daughter who sneaks in for reasons of her own. This is a novel about living with disappearances...and willing yourself to appear.
