What if Heaven made a mistake?
When Maria - a poor Black single mother from a Brazilian favela - dies, she expects peace in Heaven. Instead, she is denied entry.
Outraged and heartbroken, Maria refuses to accept the verdict. Determined to challenge divine bureaucracy - and to understand the logic behind celestial judgment - she begins an impossible journey through Purgatory and Limbo in search of justice.
But the afterlife is nothing like she imagined.
Behind Heaven's golden gates lies a system of endless queues, rigid rules, and celestial hierarchies - a reflection of the inequalities she fought against on Earth.
To claim her rightful place in Heaven, Maria must confront angels, challenge the system, and question everything she believed about faith, forgiveness, and salvation.
Because if divine justice can fail the most faithful among us... what hope remains for the rest of humanity?
The Bureau of Eternal Affairs is a bold, thought-provoking novel that blends spiritual imagination, dark humour, and social satire into an unforgettable journey through the afterlife.
