Ryan Matney is a man who hasn't quite figured out how to live. Maybe all it will take is a little bit of being dead. A witty, engrossing debut novel from veteran TV writer D.M. Sinclair "laced with poignancy, humor, and loads of twists and turns." ("Rachel Reads")Ryan is always waiting for his life to begin. Socially awkward and eternally living in the moment right after this one, Ryan's existence is hopelessly stuck.Then, in a world-altering cosmic event, the ghosts of everyone who ever died suddenly become visible to the living. Now every house is haunted, and the streets are filled with wandering souls. Death, once humankind's greatest mystery, is just a few inconvenient moments and then back to work on Monday.In this strange new world, Ryan decides that since he can't seem to get a handle on the whole life thing, he might as well get a head start on death. So, with the help of some questionable technology, he embarks on a permanent out-of-body experience and becomes one among a hundred billion ghosts.It doesn't go well. And soon, Ryan finds that he wants his life back. For that, he needs to get back into his body. Only now it seems that somebody has stolen it, and will do anything to make sure he never finds it. "D.M. Sinclair has written a novel that I for one know I will read time and time again, and never get tired of it" (Rachel Reads)"I found myself up late at night instead of sleeping and ignoring household chores wanting to know what happened next" (JBronder Book Reviews)About the Author: If you've ever turned on a TV and are not picky, you've probably seen something written by DM Sinclair. He's done more than a hundred hours of that stuff, and will happily take the blame even for shows he didn't write. Later he thought it might be nice to write books for a change. It isn't, though. Nevertheless, he intends to keep writing as long as he is alive. After that he plans to visit Australia. Like many Canadians, he lives in Canada.
