Synopsis

Stacia Altman has just received some terrible news. Life-altering news. In fact, life-ending news. She was just diagnosed with a terminal disease. Worse yet, she’s not sure if her death will matter to anyone—including herself. Once an adventurous young girl with a passion for art history, Stacia has somehow evolved into a sarcastic and listless 38-year-old wife of an ultra-controlling husband—a process she didn’t even realize was taking place until it was too late. Instead of lying down on the tracks and waiting for a train to run her over, Stacia decides to abandon the societal role she has played, in order to piece together whatever shreds of her life she can, before it’s too late. While fighting her way through the stages of grieving, Stacia finds great friends, love, and most importantly, humor. As she travels the globe solving the mystery of her life and coming to terms with her inevitable death, she ultimately discovers that the end might just be the beginning...of a greater adventure. Follow Stacia on her journey of spiritual awakening, physical pleasure, and discovery of self—a tale told from within her urn.

About the Author:

Laura T. Emery has long had a desire to write a novel. She put that desire on hold to raise a family and build a career. Waiting tables and literally selling seashells by the sea shore, Emery worked her way through college into a nursing career. For the last 15 years, she has worked as a registered nurse in the Los Angeles area. Her fierce passion for travel and diverse cultures, as well as her love of Renaissance art and architecture, have fueled her inquisitive nature. Always researching and putting her thoughts to paper, Emery creates fiction with facts. Over the past two years, Emery poured every effort into creating her debut novel, “Disposition of Remains.” Emery continues to reside in Los Angeles where she is busy at work on her second novel.
