Love doesn't die. People die. But they don't always die smoothly.
Rasmus and Jay, Roísín and Nico – two beautiful, ordinary love stories, cut short by death. Jay and Nico don't even believe in ghosts, yet they seem to be… still here. Still in love with Rasmus and Roísín. And maddeningly powerless.
Both are incapable of leaving the living alone: Jay plays matchmaker, convinced that Rasmus and Roísín can heal each other; Nico, plagued by jealousy, doesn't agree.
Rasmus and Roísín are just trying to navigate their newly widowed lives.
But all four of them are thinking the same thing: what is love, after death? What is it for? And what are we to do with it?
Moving and thought-provoking, playful and bittersweet, this is a Truly, Madly, Deeply for our times, showcasing one of Britain's finest contemporary writers at her very best.
