The Soul's Guide to the After Death

Susan Chambers woke up feeling like she had been hit by a bus.

Mostly because she had been hit by a bus.

And Susan Chambers wasn't so much waking up, as she was arriving in The After Death, the place between one life and the next.

After forty-two years as a human, a freshly dead Susan must tackle some of the biggest questions in life, death and everything that comes after.

Why are mosquitoes the way they are?

What lessons can a soul learn from a single life?

Does it really matter if you were a good person?

Is there such a thing as a life that doesn't matter at all?

With help from Aurora, her guide to The After Death, Susan must navigate through the memories and experiences that defined her before her soul can move on to its next experience. In confronting her past, her choices, and her failings, Susan must reconcile what it means to be alive, to live, and to let go.

What Critics Are Saying:

This is the best book my daughter made me read this week - Gwenna's Mom

Is this the one about ghosts or the "I see dead people" one? She reads me a lot of her stuff. It's great. Both of them are great so whichever one this is must be great. - Gwenna's Husband

The Soul's Guide to the After Death is a speculative metaphysical fiction designed to explore what value a life carries. Written by New York Times bestselling author Gwenna Laithland, this book dares to ask what happens after dying and if there is such a thing as a good person. Ms. Laithland's debut foray into the world of fiction is a blazing examination of PTSD, the weight women carry, and the search for meaning in lives both great and small.
