Despite his early deathdate, Denton has always wanted to live a normal life, but his final days are filled with dramatic firsts. First hangover. First sex. First love triangle - as the first sex seems to have happened not with his adoring girlfriend but with his best friend’s hostile sister. (Though he's not totally sure - see first hangover.)

Denton Little lives in a world exactly like our own except that everyone knows the day on which they will die. The good news: Denton has lived through his deathdate. Yay! The bad news: He's being chased by the DIA (Death Investigation Agency), he can never see his family again, and he may now die anytime. Huh. Cheating death isn't quite as awesome as Denton would have thought....

Wie alle anderen auch kennt der 17-jährige Denton seinen genauen Todestag. In der Zeit davor, der Todeswoche, tun die Menschen traditionell alles, was sie schon immer tun wollten. Am Tag vor seinem Tod erwacht Denton aber im Bett eines Mädchens, das definitiv nicht seine Freundin ist, die ihn irgendwie letzte Nacht verlassen haben muss. Das kann er kurz vor seiner Beerdigungszeremonie am Nachmittag eigentlich gar nicht brauchen. Auf welche Weise Denton den Tod finden wird, das weiß er noch nicht. Ein mysteriöser Fleck auf seiner Haut gibt jedoch einen ersten Hinweis.
