Mi chiamo Clover Brooks, e ai vivi ho sempre preferito i morti. Dal giorno in cui il mio maestro d'asilo è caduto all'improvviso dalla sedia mentre leggeva una storia di Peter Coniglio e non si è più svegliato, qualcosa in me è cambiato per sempre. Sono stata l'unica bambina a non fuggire, tra tutti quelli in classe. Quando poi anche il mio amatissimo nonno ci ha lasciati, ho scelto di dedicare la mia vita ad aiutare le persone ad abbandonare questo mondo in serenità. Perché sono convinta che nessuno dovrebbe morire da solo, o senza il conforto di una voce amica.

Clover Brooks trabaja acompañando a las personas en sus últimos días de vida, procurando que transiten al más allá de forma pacífica y recogiendo sus últimas palabras en tres cuadernos que lleva consigo siempre: Consejos, Confesiones y Arrepentimientos.

From the day she watched her kindergarten teacher drop dead during a dramatic telling of Peter Rabbit, Clover Brooks has felt a stronger connection with the dying than she has with the living. After the beloved grandfather who raised her dies alone while she is traveling, Clover becomes a death doula in New York City, dedicating her life to ushering people peacefully through their end-of-life process. Clover spends so much time with the dying that she has no life of her own, until the final wishes of a feisty old woman send Clover on a trip across the country to uncover a forgotten love story.

Clover Brooks has always felt a stronger connection with those at the end of their life than in the middle of it. She dedicates herself to ushering people peacefully though their final days, working as a death doula in New York City. Her client's last words are collected in three treasured notebooks, neatly labelled: ADVICE, CONFESSIONS and REGRETS. Then she meets Claudia: a woman who has had the kind of life that Clover hasn't dared imagine for herself.
