Jacob Thompson has always been as honest a person as he could be.  It's how he was raised. But what if the same people who raised him to be honest don't trust him? After an attempted intrusion of his family's home leads up to him accidentally stabbing his little brother, his parents kick him out of their home with the idea that his actions were intentional even after proof that it was not. Jacob, now twenty-three, reflects on this time in his life and currently lives as the person it has shaped him to be.

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!
