Studies in the Hereafter

A disillusioned office bureaucrat in the afterlife has come to realize that
maybe heaven isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Bored by the endless routine
of work, golf, and vegan food, he finds his one saving grace in his Field
Studies: detailed reports he compiles on the living in order to determine
their best fit in his world. While working on his 62nd Field Study, he
begins to fall for Tetty, a detached Basque-American beauty living in
Nevada, while struggling to understand what she sees in Carmelo, a
clumsy scholar obsessed with the elusive Basque culture. When people
start going missing from heaven for no apparent reason, the narrator
learns that Field Study 62 may hold the key to explaining the disappearances.
