In a fantasy version of the late 1800s, a boy helps souls get a second chance at life.
Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, Kenji's earliest memories are of accompanying his father on annual trips to the veil, where families have the chance to bring home a loved one lost too soon. Each year, he speaks to his mother, but each year, his parents help a stranger cross the veil instead.
Returning is just the beginning: to stay for good, souls must understand what caused their death and prevent others from meeting the same fate. Kenji eagerly helps soul after soul fulfill their purpose and go back to their old lives, learning about new cultures, places, and skills along the way. But a nagging question starts to threaten his family's routine: Why won't his mother come home?
A children's book that readers of any age can appreciate, Where the Veil Thins poignantly explores the power of community and the value of embracing newcomers.1 different editions
