Death Mourning has lived her entire life at Chaos Academy - a prestigious academy for the extremely rich. But Death isn't rich. She's an orphan. She was brought from her home to Chaos after her parents died when she was a baby, and has lived . . . well, if not happily ever after then not unhappily ever after. A new student and a strange lesson from her history teacher may reveal malevolent reasons behind her parents' deaths, and why Death was brought to live at Chaos Academy. And it may just lead to more excitement than she bargained for.
