Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The cares of life are beginning to cloud fifteen-year-old Adam Short's carefree existence. Important exams are looming, his girlfriend Julie thinks he's not focused, and right now he's about to be late for the school trip. Neither his teacher, nor Julie, will be pleased if the misses the bus.But suddenly Adam has much bigger problems when, in an extraordinary accident, his soul is torn from his body. His body loses all consciousness - reduced to a mere automaton existence: eating when food is put in its mouth, moving when guided, reacting only to touch. Meanwhile, Adam, discovering that ghosts are very much real, is trapped without a body, and stuck in a place from which he cannot freely leave.Only the untiring efforts of his girlfriend Julie – who had never considered the existence of a soul, and for whom the idea of ghosts is laughable – against the advice of everyone around her, including her parents, Adam's doctor, and his best friend can save Adam. Will she be able to figure out what has happened to Adam? Even if she does, can Julie help Adam escape the scene of his accident, and return the life to his body?
