It was a normal autumn day in the small town of Ashridge. Tree leaves were scattered on the ground, geese were flying in formation overhead, and pumpkins were on every lawn. It was perfect sweater weather for 13-year-old Oliver (Ollie) Alexander Moore. 

If you asked Ollie's friends they would all say that he is kind, helpful, quiet, and academically gifted. But this 'gift' of intelligence will soon lead Oliver to join the H.E.A.T. (High-risk elite assault task-force)

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
