About the book
Lunarbre, a lonely eighteenth-century Louisiana island, has been blessed with the gift of resurrection after death, bestowed by the lovely spirit, Lorelei. The islanders may live as they please, unable to remain dead, as long as they stay on the shore of her power. Yet the taste of eternal life has held all in repetition for years and begins to lose its flavour with a few of its citizens.
Jackson Grimm, the doctor and undertaker, has fallen in love with Lorelei at the crossroads of death but is unable to fully be with her. William Moreau, captain of the island’s militia, has grown cruel with the impatience of a stagnated life. Edith Moreau, wife of William, longs to save what is left of their relationship. And Cosette Giroux, the island’s prostitute and drunk, is seen as a mockery of her ancestor, Lorelei, and has thus lost respect for herself.
When a situation arises and islanders start perishing permanently, it’s up to the four of them to discover what has occurred with Lorelei before death embraces them all.
