Susie and Allison were best friends. They planned to grow old
together-two grumpy old ladies on a crooked front porch-but fate
had other plans. Allison fell ill with cancer. Although they both
knew the prognosis was not good, they pressed forward with
treatments and hope. Hope sustained them for a while, but the
treatments didn't work. Susie was forced to watch her best friend
sicken, suffer, and ultimately, die.
After losing Allison, Susie feels as though she's losing her
mind. They call it a nervous breakdown, and Susie is happy to
believe the doctors and move on-except something has changed.
Somehow, Susie can hear and communicate with Allison. She suspects
she really might have gone mad, but soon the two friends realize
they've bridged a miraculous gap between the living and the
dead.
Together, they travel through the afterlife on either side of
the divide. Through Allison's observations, the two brave friends
are able to seek out the meaning of their lives, solve the mystery
of death, and forge a friendship that will last until eternity.
Cancer took Allison away; hope returned her to Susie. Their voyage
is one of wonder and self-discovery-but most of all, it is a story
of devoted and never-ending love.
