What happens after we die? What's it like on the other side? These questions are considered in a story about a young woman, Celeste, who dies so unexpectedly that even a police investigation can't resolve the case. And what is the impact on her husband, Larson, and their children, who are four-year-old identical twin girls? Chapters alternate between a re-imagined Heaven and Earth in a small Massachusetts town during the Covid-19 pandemic. Celeste is amazed by what she discovers during her spiritual explorations after she crosses over. Meanwhile, her family left on Earth learns how to cope with this unexpected time of bereavement. This poignant and heartwarming family drama, filled with both pathos and humor, ultimately points to the triumph of Love. The novel supports values from multiple faiths, including kindness, compassion and the Golden Rule.
