"On a perfect June day, Vivian Howe, author of thirteen beach novels and mother of three, is killed in a hit-and-run car accident while jogging near her home on Nantucket. She ascends to the Beyond, where she's assigned to a Person named Martha, who allows Vivi to watch what happens below for one last summer. Vivi also is granted three 'nudges' to change the outcome of events on Earth, and with her daughter Willa on her third miscarriage, daughter Carson partying until all hours, and Leo currently 'off again' with his high-maintenance girlfriend, she'll have to think about how to use them"--Dust jacket flap.
