The lives of Mike and Gabe were as disparate as the sudden ways they ended. Both find themselves in the Afterland and are soon drawn together in a friendship that would have been almost impossible on earth. As they struggle with the reality of the Afterland, they begin to question their core beliefs. Intermittent portals open windows to critical events in the lives of their loved ones, both good and bad. The Afterland brings many questions: Is this Heaven, Hell, neither, both? What lies beyond the boundary? Why can't they breach this boundary?

When they meet Bob, a being from another world, preconceptions from their past lives are challenged-as is the reality of the universe. The three friends, along with a trusty pet from Mike's childhood, soon bond over everything from roller coasters to classic Motown, but they are inevitably drawn into the never-ending battle of good vs. evil, leading to an ultimate conflict that could destroy all that they love.
