YANight Fall series.
Luke's home life, already strained, gets worse after his mother's death. As his stepfather becomes increasingly hostile, Luke, now running the family funeral home business, must make sense of the messages he's receiving from the dead. Flat characters prevent the story from creating anything more than superficial suspense, but the spooky premise and accessible text may grab reluctant readers.
