They say the Devil's greatest trick was convincing the world that he didn't exist. 
But that was nothing compared to God's greatest trick.

What was that? I asked.

Convincing the world that an afterlife was what you wanted, until you got one.

***

When an outcast teen meets the wrong girl at the wrong time, he pays the price with his life. Dead and forgotten by the world, he wakes up floating in a coffin on his way to Limbo; a twilit realm where the misfits of the world go to live the lives they never could in life. 

It's a world of outcasts and vagabonds, of misguided youth and unfulfilled dreams. A world with no rules or consequences. An infernal paradise. 

There, he meets Alester, a enigmatic and misguided youth running from a twisted past. Together they set out on a dark and winding road through Limbo's underbelly; one that takes them through a cemetery of the unlived, a bazaar of endless greed, a house of insatiable lust and a forest of ceaseless wrath. 

Along the way, they discover that their misguided choices in life may have had a greater impact than they ever imagined, as the consequences of their actions find a way to haunt them, even after death.

This is my first work on Wattpad and I'm very excited to share it with you all. I finished the first draft of the completed novel a few months ago so what you're seeing here is an attempt at a polished second draft. 

Thank you very much and happy reading!
