His loving but imperious wife Katrinka becomes convinced that it's safer for everyone if he stays dead. Reluctantly, Tom agrees to live out his days in obscurity until an old enemy reveals that his life is still in danger.

Hart Fox is in line for admission to Stutts, the most prestigious college in the Universe. But when the local millionaire's son elbows him out, Hart has no choice but to accept a deal: admission in exchange for taking the dunce's classes on top of his own. Of course, the deal backfires, but with the help of his vampire girlfriend, his wheelchair-bound genius roommate, and the staff of the college humor magazine, Hart just may come out on top.

An affectionate, unauthorized parody of the British TV drama, by the author of the million-selling Barry Trotter series.
