Veil and Finn used to be a team. An estranged prince from Death and a woman from Life who can't remember her past. They spend years on the run, fighting off everyone who wants them dead because some interdimensional asshats said some stuff about destiny and cosmic balance. Veil and Finn choose their own destiny. They choose when to run and when to stop. Ten years ago they stopped running, took their sins and the patchwork family they'd collected along the way, and put down roots to try and grow past their mistakes.
Things are good. For a while.
But here's the thing about choices: they all have consequences. By choosing to live their lives with an adopted son and daughter instead of pursuing dimensional balance between Life and Death, Veil and Finn have further ensured the apocalypse currently shaking the world apart. By choosing to lie about their daughter's past, they inadvertently hand her a key to a closet full of skeletons. By choosing to lie to each other, they end up destroying the only thing that ever made them whole.
Veil wants to give his daughter a better life by undoing the past. Finn wants to keep the life they have by embracing the present. With their continued absence from the political scene of Life and Death, the apocalypse grows stronger and the Realms more discontent. If they don't get their personal and cosmic shit together soon, the fight for their family will swiftly become a fight for every family.
Told from the point of view of the kids, the parents, and a few concerned third parties, A Matter of Life and Death is about making peace with your demons, reclaiming your family, and learning how to forgive in the middle of an apocalypse that's kind of your fault.

Freedom was supposed to be simple. But nothing in my life ever turns out simple. Just down the road, past the places I thought I knew by heart, there's another world-one I never imagined existed. A world with a father I'd been told was dead. A world that wants to claim me as much as my mother does. Now I'm stuck in the middle of a tug-of-war between two lives, two homes... and maybe even two hearts. And the worst part? The more I uncover about who I really am, the more I realize high school might have been the safest place I'll ever know.Kumpleto
