Publisher’s description

The mystery heats up as the mysterious Marquez de Marquis reveals to our young, and very dead, detectives Charles & Edwin that they are on the trail of an immortal killer who must drain his victims lives to stay alive. The boys get a bone-chilling history lesson and learn more about their own ghostly abilities as they close in on their prey.
