A love story, a ghost story, our past and our future. This epic book dares to imagine what happens after we die. Imagine a book that could tell us what happens after we die. In 2049, The Book of the After has become a cult classic, and Negus Kebede has always wondered if what it says is true. His name means ‘king’ in his mother tongue but, following a great loss, Negus is a reluctant leader – for what is a king without his queen? If The Book of the After is right, then they could be reunited. But a would-be assassin is haunting him, determined to alter Negus’ destiny, and that of the country he loves. Crossing centuries and continents, space and time, this is a love story for the ages – and everything after.
