From the outside, it appears that Temperance "Tempe" Anderson is living the ultimate dream: running collegiate cross country for Archibald University on a full athletic scholarship, with a group of young women that are as dedicated as she is. But not everything is as it seems. 
 
Tempe is hiding something: an event that took place the summer bridging her senior year of high school and her entrance into Archibald. Ever since, her brain is a haze, her memory a mess of fog and smoke. Now, Tempe questions everything around her, the motives of those she thought could become friends, and pushing herself further and further into the space between living and escape. 
 
Just when Tempe begins to settle in, the truth about that summer comes out. And she can feel herself falling to pieces.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
