Every culture has some type of figure of Death. The Grim Reaper who collects souls as they lie dying. For some he is the cruel face of an end come too soon, for others a gentle healer of life lived too long. But there is another face to this spectural figure. Death walks through the world, helping those souls that linger between this world and the next, those trapped by circumstance, wish, desire or loss. So many souls linger needing but a gentle voice and hand to help them move past the final moments of their lives. This collection contains 15 tales of beings who either don't know that they are dead or just how to move on. This book collects together 14 previous published short stories and includes one totally new story.
