The Hollow Light

Clementine Walters is dead. At twenty-two, after a year-long battle with cancer, she should be gone. But instead of nothingness, she finds herself in a golden light, guided by a Reaper who is not the grim specter she expected, but calm, patient, and impossibly luminous.

Between life and the afterlife, Clementine drifts through memories she barely remembered and moments she never thought she'd relive: the first steps she took, the careless laughter of youth, the bittersweet echoes of love and loss.

She watches the living continue, feeling the tug of those she left behind, and discovers that death is not an end, but a place in-between-a place where grief, memory, and longing weave together.

And soon, someone else will come for her. A Reaper unlike any she has known. The journey beyond life will be long, treacherous, and strange, stretching across worlds she doesn't understand. And as she travels it, she may discover that even in the spaces between life and death, hearts can still collide, and love can still awaken.
