They'll do anything to solve the case. Rowland and Paine, the dead British teenagers who first appeared in Neil Gaiman's THE SANDMAN: SEASON OF MISTS, travel stateside to investigate a strange missing-persons case at a posh International Academy for Girls. Naturally, the inquisitive duo is forced to go undercover - in drag - if they're to have a hope in hell of solving the case. It's time for dark secrets, food fights and spies as the Dead Boy Detectives learn a lot about life from the precocious daughters of rich ambassadors and rebellious rock stars. This manga digest also features an introduction to the SANDMAN library and an excerpt from DEATH: AT DEATH'S DOOR, Jill Thompson's first manga digest.
