Sixteen-year-old Evangeline has been dead for decades. Her accidentally
heroic demise secured her a spot on Cloud Nine, the luxurious
top tier of the Afterlife - but it turns out that even paradise
can get boring.
After a century of terminal niceness, Evvy volunteers to train
as a celestial guide. Now it's her job to watch over people during
their final hours on earth, ensuring they don't screw up their
chances of a decent Afterlife.
Evvy isn't averse to bending the rules, and she always gets results
- until she makes the fatal mistake of falling for a living
boy.
Why can Tom see Evvy when he's not scheduled to depart yet? And
how can she make this work when he's alive, she's dead, and fraternising
with Beforelifers is absolutely forbidden?
Suddenly, Evvy is facing the biggest challenge of her Afterlife...
- A fresh, original and funny novel from the author of Totally
Deceased - like You've Reached Sam or Afterlove,
but with the humour of The Good Place and the
Barbie movie.
- Ideal for fans of Gabrielle Zevin's Elsewhere and The
Love of my Afterlife by Kirsty Greenwood.
- A heartfelt romance spanning life and death, with a relatable
contemporary world, an imagined afterlife and an unforgettable cast
of characters from across history.
