Synopsis

The morning Fiona died started like any other at the assisted living center--until she found herself floating above her bed where her body lay turning blue. She was even more surprised to find herself transported to any place that crossed her mind, which is how she ended up in her favorite tree. Thus begins Fiona’s adventure in the afterlife where she is befriended by a former slave with a fondness for red cowboy boots; an Indian with a gambling addiction; and an assortment of contemporary dead-selves who are also learning the ropes. This afterlife bears no resemblance to the one in the Bible. Fiona’s consciousness is now in the form of an atomic configuration of subatomic particles with extra sensory powers and the ability to telepath and teleport. As Fiona struggles to make the most of her new existence, she desperately wants to avoid the mistakes she made in her past. Death has given her a second chance on the most level of playing fields. Everyone looks like a glowing ball of energy and subsists on sunlight. But right off the bat, she alienates her new friends and Fiona realizes that happiness still depends on dealing with her old baggage. She has to change—not the part where she is resourceful but the part where she is so angry and aggressive. At first, Fiona uses her new powers to confront her abusive childhood; then to restore the benefits of her lost body. Who knew that quantum mechanics could be so useful? All seems to be going well until she and her new dead-self friends learn that these powers come at a price. Fiona, the retired Federal defense department contract specialist from the mountains of West Virginia, must now take on forces that make the international defense contractors of her past look like puppies in a woodpile. If she fails, she takes her new family down with her and puts the planet at risk. Maybe this is not a good time to change.
