When 50-year-old Lucas Palmer falls out of a rowboat into northern California’s Russian River, he initiates rapid and mysterious changes in the life of his troubled daughter Wendy — who, at age 28, has been glumly waiting for her “real life” to begin. While the comatose Lucas conducts a searching inventory of his past in a strange otherworld, he must also negotiate the peace in a ludicrous battle between his two after-life guides: the spirit of his beloved wife Flora and the bombastic, cinematic ghost of General George S. Patton (Lucas’s secret hero). Meanwhile Wendy gets an unexpected makeover during a trying weekend that she must get through without the help of her Marianne Williamson tapes — and soon she learns secrets of her own past that shake her very foundations.

When the parallel and mystically linked stories of Love After Life converge in a gripping conclusion, every reader will be left with a new appreciation of the staying power of love and the hidden reserves of the human spirit.

“Here is a lucid, deftly told story of the healing power of love and the tenacity of spirit. But this is also a suspense tale with a redemptive twist — a genuine metaphysical thriller that seizes the soul and keeps you up until midnight turning the pages.” —Tim Farrington, author of The Monk Downstairs and The Monk Upstairs

“D. Patrick Miller has done what all novelists hope to do — hook the readers in the first five pages and not let go. Wendy and her father Lucas are immediately real and vibrant characters, and it is well worth the reader’s time to take their journey with them.” — M.J. ROSE, author of Lip Service
