At last Abigail Croucher can purchase Binalong - after all, the old building in Melbourne was the dream location for her husband's restaurant. But Luca has died.

On a whim she buys the cottage next door as well. With the help of her new neighbours and attractive landscape architect Jack Mattingley, Abigail is ready to start afresh. When it appears that her husband wasn't all she had believed him to be, Abigail needs to cleanse the past before she is able to trust her heart - and her future - with anyone again.

How could a mature, self-sufficient woman have got it so wrong?

Here-After is a story about love and betrayal, about belief and possibility. It is concerned with the notion of 'after-life' - life after heartbreak, after loss and abandonment and grieving, after great change - and the possibilities not just of an 'after-world' but a happy after-life.
