Brother Stephen dies suddenly. That's when things get complicated.
Is Stephen's death his wake-up call? This possibility slowly dawns
on him. Soon, though, he is behind the wheel of a Prius, driving
through his afterlife, listening to himself being interviewed on
NPR. "It's just like high school, Terry. You know, maybe it is high
school," he tells her, in the interview, as she questions him about
lawsuits filed by students who claimed to have been molested by
pedophile Brothers. As an administrator of his Roman Catholic
religious order, he was caught in the middle of these heartbreaking
cases. In fact, the lawsuit he was dealing with the moment he died
is one that strikes especially close to his heart. He once knew the
plaintiff--he once knew her very well--but he also knew the Brother
who is named in the lawsuit. Now that he's dead, he's more
determined than ever to get to the truth. He spends his afterlife
unraveling this terrible mystery, learning more about the plight of
the survivor and that of the accused, but the biggest mystery he
faces is one about himself.
