Afterlife

Soon to be a major motion picture from Imagine Entertainment and producers Ron Howard and Brian Grazer.

Between life and death lies an epic war, a relentless manhunt through two worlds…and an unforgettable love story.

The last thing FBI agent Will Brody remembers is the explosion – a thousand shards of glass surfing a lethal shock wave.

He wakes without a scratch.

The building is in ruins. His team is gone. Outside, Chicago is dark. Cars lie abandoned. No planes cross the sky. He’s relieved to spot other people – until he sees they’re carrying machetes.

Welcome to the afterlife.

Claire McCoy stands over the body of Will Brody. As head of an FBI task force, she hasn’t had a decent night’s sleep in weeks. A terrorist has claimed eighteen lives and thrown the nation into panic.

Against this horror, something reckless and beautiful happened. She fell in love…with Will Brody.

But the line between life and death is narrower than any of us suspect – and all that matters to Will and Claire is getting back to each other.

From the author of the million-copy bestselling Brilliance Trilogy comes a mind-bending thriller that explores our most haunting and fundamental question: What if death is just the beginning?

I think he presents a very hopeful and interesting take on what the afterlife may be like, something I certainly had never…

  2. Love after Death I’ve just finished reading Mr Sakey’s latest novel and the only reaction I have is: Is there any form of book that he can’t skillfully bring out? Afterlife involves an approach to what comes after we pass away that is both surrealistic and mesmerizing at the same time. 

  3. Still recovering…. I got an advance copy of Afterlife and devoured it in a few sittings. Sakey is a genre master, and here his storytelling talents are working on overdrive. The marketing says Ghost and Matrix, but those are loose, nearly irrelevant markers. The book is a monumental work of literary invention and totally original, a mash-up of straight ahead crime-thriller writing with one of the most fully realized parallel worlds I’ve encountered on the page. If you loved Brilliance, Afterlife is an ambitious…
