Abagail Abercrombie never intended to become the reluctant custodian of Fariddion, the great beyond. But when her death becomes suddenly imminent, Rupert appears at exactly the wrong — or perhaps the right — moment to intervene. From that point on, nothing in Abagail’s life remains ordinary. A parade of eccentric characters and impossible events unfolds as she finds herself preparing and guiding a select few of Earth’s lost souls toward their rightful place in the afterlife, whether they’re ready or not.Things grow even stranger when Wilbur Warburton, a magician Abagail secretly fancies, brings her a problem: a doll named Heather.Unbeknown to Abagail, Heather’s release from five centuries of imprisonment inside that doll is part of Rupert’s and Fariddion’s long‑laid plan. Now reborn as a woman — mischievous, beautiful, slightly sinister, and entirely unpredictable — Heather is hoped to become something new: a balancing force, a shield of hope. But can her intentions truly be trusted?Abagail is pulled into a paranormal contract that is as unsettling as it is absurd, and no one will tell her all the rules. What begins as a simple tick‑the‑boxes day to obtain her RPL pilot’s licence spirals into a comedy of supernatural misfires, emotional ambushes, and mysteries that refuse to stay politely buried.With dry wit, oddball charm, and a cast of characters who treat the uncanny with the same irritation they reserve for unhealthy food, this story by M. E. Harris invites readers into a world where the paranormal isn’t noble or glamorous — it’s awkward, bureaucratic, horrifying, and hilariously human.
