Description

'Chillingly beautiful. A love story like no other' Clare Mackintosh, author of I Let You Go

One soul. One pact with the Devil. One chance at love.

Elizabeth Murray has been condemned to burn at the stake. As she awaits her fate, a strange, handsome man visits her cell. He offers her a deal: her soul in return for immortality, but what he offers is not a normal life. To survive Elizabeth must become Death itself.

Elizabeth must ease the passing of all those who die, appearing at the point of death and using her compassion to guide them over the threshold. She accepts and, for 500 years, whirls from one death to the next, never stopping to think of the life she never lived. Until one day, everything changes. She – Death – falls in love.

Desperate to escape the terms of her deal, she summons the man who saved her. He agrees to release her on one condition: that she gives him five lives. These five lives she must take herself, each one more difficult and painful than the last.
About Lucy Booth
Lucy Booth was born in Suffolk and grew up in Cheshire. In 2011 she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Undaunted, Lucy not only continued working as a freelance producer but, in a typically forthright and humorous fashion, wrote a blog (lucifersboob.blogspot.co.uk) about her cancer experience. She also felt the urge to write a novel - The Life of Death is the result. Lucy died in August 2016, aged thirty-seven. She was funny, brave and an inspiration to all who knew and loved her.
