Synopsis

Virgil thought he'd found contentment in Key West with his wife, Ellen. But after four years together, he and Ellen have become virtual strangers to each other. Then cosmic fate offers Virgil a second chance at happiness. The soul of Beatrice, a recently murdered professional escort, mysteriously enters Ellen's body. She refuses to go on into the Light until she experiences one day of true love on earth. Beatrice sets her sights on winning Virgil for her own. But if Beatrice wins, Ellen loses her body. Ellen is determined to keep her body and soul together and win back her husband. And what does Virgil want? Though he still loves Ellen, he is beginning to fall for Beatrice. Soon he finds himself cheating on his wife...with his wife.

"Compelling debut fantasy...Robbins can write as gauzily as an angel." (Kirkus Reviews)

A propos du livre

Commentaires

This unusual romance is about Virgil's search for happiness with his wife of four years, Ellen, and the spirit who haunts them, Beatrice. As Virgil learns to live life more fully, Ellen struggles to conquer Beatrice, whose need for love overwhelms her desire to "go into the light of heaven." Juliette Parker reads in clear, concise tones that mimic the slow pace of this novel. She reads the men in clipped style, while the women's voices flow as easily as the narrative. There are echoes and hollow tones in the tape, as well as places where the voice sounds doubled. Nevertheless, Robbins's romance as told from the man's point of view comes across well in Parker's soft narration and crisp dialogue.
