From her gazebo in a very un-celestial heaven, murdered teenager Susie Salmon watches and frets over her family and friends as they reel under the shock of her death. Can her parents' marriage survive? How will her sister and little brother cope? Will her friends learn to live without her? Underlying everything, will her killer ever be discovered and caught? Life, death, forgiveness, vengeance, memory and forgetting all are encompassed in this truly remarkable novel.
