Eight months after his wife Maggie dies, widower Anthony Bothwell switches on his computer and discovers an email—from her. The message is so personal it could only have come from Maggie. And its warning is terrifying. Is someone playing a cruel trick, or is the impossible really happening? The emails from maggie.bothwell@theafterlife.org.uk keep coming. As Anthony's certainty about life, death and everything in between begins to crumble, he replies. Their conversations become tender, funny and deeply moving. But when a long-buried family secret is uncovered, grief turns to betrayal, and Anthony is forced to question everything he thought he knew about the woman he loved. Then he meets Brooke, a fellow widow who offers him the chance to begin again. Can Anthony uncover the truth behind the impossible emails—and find the courage to embrace a second chance?

About Us

Irish Interest in based on one very simple idea: to bring the contents of any Irish bookshop to people everywhere, especially those outside Ireland who do not have the possibility of keeping abreast of new books published in Ireland. The Irish Interest web platform is purely a provider of information about new publications. The aim of the site is to have every publishing house in Ireland adding their latest titles as they become available. Hyperlinks to each title bring users of the site directly to the publisher's web area or to a sales site where books can be purchased.
