Emma Vance has always lived like she's daring the world to stop her - fast cars, open roads, and a stubborn refusal to play it safe. On a perfect Sunday morning in Scottsdale, the world finally takes her up on it. She's thirty years old, and she's gone.
What waits on the other side is not what she expected: a grand, rose-scented estate run with the quiet efficiency of a very well-organized afterlife bureaucracy, presided over by a woman named Tina who informs Emma, without ceremony, that she has unfinished business before she can move on. The business has a name. Karl Morrison - her college love, the man who vanished without a word twenty years ago and took something irreplaceable with him when he went.
Karl is now living quietly in Carlsbad, California, trying not to think about Emma and mostly failing. He doesn't know she's dead. He doesn't know that the fracture the two of them left in each other has been quietly damaging things ever since, or that the woman he will pull from the ocean one night - a stranger on a dark beach, barely breathing - is not entirely who she appears to be.
Emma has been given a mission, a borrowed body, and one absolute rule: Karl can never know who she really is. What she hasn't been told - what she will have to discover for herself - is that the love she came to reclaim may not be hers to keep.
Love and Death 101 is a love story about three people, two lifetimes, and the extraordinary courage it takes to want someone else's happiness more than your own.
