Summary: Prior to recorded history, a small genetic mutation occurred that created a race of humans now found among every civilization in every corner of the globe. Unrecognizable to the rest of mankind but dependent upon them for survival, this race is known as Mortui; those whose spirits do not sever from their bodies when they die. As S.P. Cloward reveals in his novel “AfterLife,” they are the source of all “living dead” legends. At the time of his premature death, Wesley Lohmann discovers he belongs to this select group. He is recruited by AfterLife, learns what it means to be Mortui, and joins in the impending conflict between two rival organizations; one determined to serve humans and the other focused on the domination and subjection of the living. As he struggles with new and past relationships and tries to find meaning for his continued existence, Wes discovers within himself the ability and heart to tip the balance in favor of those who want to deal harmoniously with mankind.
