Be careful what you wish for . . .

Lonely, overweight Billy Barton's birthday has come except he has no friends to share it with. So he wishes upon a shooting star for a friend and is almost immediately granted his wish. His friend: a zombie named RIP.

Chaos and blood-soaked mayhem ensues as Billy, with RIP's help, seeks to level the playing field between him and the school bullies who make fun of his weight. But all is not what it seems, and when a new girl arrives at the school who piques Billy’s interest, it soon becomes apparent that RIP has an agenda of his own.

- Tom Piccirilli, author of A Choir of Ill Children

"Harrison Howe takes readers on a fast, funny, and gruesome ride. R.I.P. is a treat for twisted kids of all ages."

- Lee Thomas, Lambda Literary Award- and Bram Stoker Award-winning author of In the Closet, Under the Bed and The Dust of Wonderland

"Harrison Howe writes as if he's channeling nightmares, which, for ordinary writers wouldn't be possible, but because Harrison is no ordinary writer, it works achingly well."
