    This is a novel about life, death and everything in between.

    Suzi says, "It started as a collection of tombstone quotes, but, as I was assembling them all together, it took on a whole different colour and I found myself immersed in a fictional story, connecting 6 students and a professor".

    "It was completely unexpected, and I delightedly followed the road wherever it let me".

    "My mother always said, 'you are born alone and you die alone', and that my fellow readers, says it all".
