Julian Blake always pictured the bridge to the afterlife as a river. Departed souls drifted through it languidly until tumbling down a great waterfall into whatever lay beyond. Only the wickedest and most power-hungry deviated from this path, damning their souls by sacrificing their place in the afterlife for eternal life on Earth.

When Julian joined the effort to eliminate the immortal threat, he never expected to die. And he certainly didn't expect to find the bridge exactly as he'd theorize. He'd be insane not to explore it. After all, it's the end of his life. It's his only chance. But curiosity is as often a vice as a virtue as Julian finds when he deviates too far from his path…

Alive again, Julian has a second chance to defeat the immortals. And a third chance. And a fourth. As many as he needs to remove the scourge from the Earth and hopefully figure out a way to save his damned soul in the process.
