Recreated

by Kim A. Smith

Can we communicate with the dead? That’s the ancient question Louie Huey and Chloe Robertson set out to answer in Recreated.

Their interest in after-death communication comes about when a friend receives email messages from her dead husband from a Celestial.com address that contain intimate information known only to the two of them. Are they coming from her husband in the hereafter or a sick stalker?

Louie and Chloe find no creditable scientific evidence that after-death communication is possible. But they interview dozens of ordinary people who claim they are regularly in contact with the dead. All of these people can't be lying or delusional. Or can they?

Major personal complications beset their investigation, which delay its completion for 10 years. In the end, they reach a conclusion about after-death communication that is more complicated than either of them could have foreseen.

Anyone who yearns for one more talk with a special lost loved one should read Recreated. That person may be trying to contact you.
