Touching accounts of souls in the afterlife, some of whom have been lingering in the in-between worlds for a long time. There is Peter, a Huguenot who cannot forgive his tormentors, or Rosalie with her illegitimate murdered child. There are many reasons not to move into the light: love for family members, physical or emotional injuries suffered, remorse, ignorance about the current state, and much more. These souls find redemption through understanding with the help of the archangels and the mediumistic author.
