Dead Gorgeous




A tragi-comic contemporary ghost story, from a best-selling author.

Moving to the country because her parents want to run a dilapidated old hotel is not 11-year-old Nova's idea of fun. Her parents are really busy and her older sister's so grown-up. The hotel guests are a peculiar bunch and life is tough for the whole family. But meeting the hotel's resident ghost makes it a bit more bearable for Nova - especially as he's a gorgeous teenage boy, with problems of his own to sort out!

An entertaining and moving story from a best-selling author.
