Description

Book 1: Alice had no idea why she was in heaven. Her guide, Josie, isn't much help, either. She seems to be enjoying the fact that Alice is clueless about her death and the life that came before it. As Alice’s heaven expands around her, she discovers that there might be somebody in heaven who can fill in the blanks in her memories, but when they are unwilling to help, she finds herself being pushed to dangerous measures to discover the person she used to be. Book 2: Alice has been given the chance of a lifetime. She’s been sent back in time to live out the last week of her life. She’s relieved to find that her questions about her past are finally being answered, but as the days pass, she starts to realize that finding out the truth hasn't brought her any peace. When the day of her death arrives she’s relieved to think that she will soon be returning to heaven, but when her death passes and she’s still on earth, she realizes that things aren't going to be as straightforward as she had thought. Book 3: Alice is stuck on earth and there’s no way back to heaven. She finds herself floating back to her college campus and when her friend Milly doesn’t seem to care that she’s dead, she begins to lose her sanity. When a resident ghost at the college warns her about the path of revenge she is taking, it becomes startlingly obvious that Alice may already be too far gone. But when a familiar face shows up from heaven, Alice starts to realize just how far she has fallen. The question is, though, is it already too late for her? Has she already fallen too far to be saved?

INSPIRING WORDS
“Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.”
- Henry David Thoreau
CHAPTER 1


Where was I?
I could hear swings creaking in the wind and the trees rustling above my head, but it didn’t make any sense to me. I was inside, I was sure that I was inside. I was somewhere important. I was doing something important, but I couldn’t remember what it was.
My head hurt. That’s something that I knew for certain. My brain was pounding against my skull with the force of a tidal wave coming to shore.
I opened my eyes, because I realized that everything was dark. Now I knew where I was, though.
I was on 6th Street. I was in the park where I had spent almost all of my childhood summers. The swings looked just the same as they did back then, old and faded with chipped red paint and rusted chains.
What was I doing at the park? How did I get there? Why was I lying on the ground between the slides and see-saw?
I pushed myself up from the soft and springy versatex flooring that was beneath me. Tiny stones started to indent the skin on my hands, as I put the weight of my body on them, so that I could force my legs to go straight. My hands stung, so I rubbed them against my jeans so that the tiny stones would fall back down to the ground where they belonged.
How did I get there? How did I get to the park? It didn’t make sense. I couldn’t remember anything other than that I’d spent time in the park before. I couldn’t even remember what my name was. Why was my head hurting so much? Nothing was making any sense to me.
“You look a little panicked.”
I turned to look at whoever had just spoken to me. It was a girl with long, rainbow-colored hair. She was smiling, but it wasn’t a friendly smile. It was the kind of smile a person carried when they were enjoying somebody’s misery.
“Where am I?” I asked.
She skipped over to me and stopped just before her body would have crashed into mine. “You don’t remember, do you? Oh, I do like it when they don’t remember.”
“Remember what?” I stared at her. She was like nothing I’d ever seen before. She was the oddest mixture of old and new. Her features were heavy, like those you might expect to find in a Victorian portrait of a handsome woman, but her clothes, her hair and her attitude seemed to better fit modern times.
She grinned, revealing a perfect set of pearly white teeth. “You’re dead.”
She leaned forward on the balls of her feet to see my reaction, and then swung her body back. Her eyes were fixed on my face. I could see her eating up the expression of shock on my face, as though it was the most delicious dessert she’d ever tried.
“What do you mean, I’m dead?” It didn’t make any sense. How could I be dead? I was standing in the middle of the park on 6th Street. I couldn’t be dead. “I think you’re mistaken.”
“Of course you do,” she said dryly. “It’s always the same,” she said, with her fingers making quotation marks in the air. “I can’t be dead, I had things that I still had to do, it isn’t fair,” she droned, as though she’d heard it all before. Then she dropped her arms to her hips. “I’m sorry, sweetie, but you’re dead and there’s nothing you can do about it.”
I could feel a frown drawing my face down. “I can’t be dead. It doesn’t make any sense. How could I be dead?”
She shrugged. “Well, it normally happens when you stop living, you see,” she said, as though I needed the whole concept of life and death to be explained to me. “You stop breathing and then you come up here.”
“Up here?”
She smiled. “Welcome to heaven, Alice.”
Alice? Was that my name? It sounded familiar. It seemed to fit, but how did she know my name, when I didn’t? “I’m in heaven?”
She nodded. “Trust me, it’s a lot better than the other places.”
“What other places?”
She rolled her eyes. “You know: hell, purgatory and all the other little realms into between.”
“Are you dead, too?”
She laughed again. “Well, I’m heaven, aren’t I?”
“I guess.”
“So, where are we?” she asked me, when the wind picked up and the swings started to creak loudly. “I know we’re in a park, but why this park?”
I shrugged. “I spent a lot of time in a park like this when I was younger.”
“Ah,” she nodded. “I guess that makes sense.”
“It does?”
“It does.”
“And why is that?”
“Don’t you know anything about heaven?” she asked, as though I was the slow kid in class. “Heaven isn’t just any old city in the sky; it’s your own personal city. It’s everything that you’ve ever loved, it’s everything that you’ve ever wanted, and it’s all at your fingertips.”
“I don’t understand.”
“Do you want me to show you?” she asked with her eyebrow arched.
“Show me what?”
“How heaven works.”
“You’d do that?” I asked with disbelief. Her general attitude towards me hadn’t given me the impression that she was a helpful kind of person.
“Of course,” she looked offended. “Why do you think I’m here?”
“I don’t know,” I admitted.
“I’m your guide,” she grinned. “I’m here to show you the ropes and get you used to death, so that you can settle in all nice and well.”
“You’re my guide?”
“Sure,” she nodded. “Heaven can be a bit daunting when you first arrive.”
“You’re telling me.” I glanced around the park again and realized that the world stopped where the metal fencing started. There was the park and then nothing else. “Is this all that there is?” I asked, as I tried to see through the thick mist that surrounded the fencing.
“At the moment,” she nodded. “You can change that, though, if you want to.”
“How do I change it?”
“Well, what do you want to see?”
“What do you mean?”
“If you could have anything or be anywhere, what would you pick?”
“I don’t know,” I stuttered. “I guess, I’m kind of hungry.” My stomach made a growling noise, as though to back up my statement.
She nodded. “Okay. Well, that’s a start. Let’s go to get something to eat.”
“How can we do that? There’s nothing outside of the park.”
“You’re right, there isn’t yet,” she paused and looked at me with a deeply serious look, which seemed to age her young features. “Close your eyes and imagine your favourite diner or restaurant.”
“Close my eyes?” I frowned. She sounded like she was making fun of me. What kind of instructions included closing your eyes and imagining? It sounded like a load of crap.
“Close them,” she pushed.
“Fine,” I sighed, and then I did.
CHAPTER 2


The smell of bacon frying filled the air and the creaking of the swings faded away. I opened my eyes and looked around. It was a diner I’d been in before, but I couldn’t recall when or where it had been located.
The walls were a light minty green with old, tattered posters of retro food brands stuck to them. The booths were covered in a red, shiny vinyl that had seen better days. I could see tears and worn out patches all over the overstuffed seats.
“Of all the places to pick, you chose this?” my guide wrinkled her nose. “I’m not sure y
