After a minor car accident shatters her equilibrium, forty-three-year-old Amanda Ferguson wakes up to a memory of being terrorized by her older brother Adrian, whom she holds responsible for the death of her twin brother thirty years before. Set against the background of the theatre, The Day after Death explores how loss and family trauma affect our ability to connect, trust, and love.

Recounts the events of the previous fall when the protagonist was suspected of killing Isabel Vittorio, the chair of her department and her former lover. This book dramatizes how communities can create the very climate of mistrust and paranoia that victimizes them.

When Fiona Hardison, a blocked Edith Wharton scholar, is passed over for promotion at the behest of her lover - memorably slimy departmental chairman Sigmund Froelich - she embarks on a journey toward self-discovery with suprising consequences.
