BEAUTIFUL, HAPPILY MARRIED, AND THE OWNER OF A SUCCESSFUL INTERIOR DESIGN BUSINESS, CASEY MARSHALL COULDN`T BE MORE CONTENT WITH HER LIFE, UNTIL A CAR SLAMS INTO HER AT ALMOST FIFTY MILES AN HOUR, BREAKING NEARLY EVERY BONE IN HER BODY AND PLUNGING HER INTO A COMA. LYING IN HER HOSPITAL BED, CASEY REALIZES THAT ALTHOUGH SHE IS UNABLE TO SEE OR COMMUNICATE, SHE CAN HEAR EVERYTHING. SHE QUICKLY DISCOVERS THAT HER FRIENDS AREN`T NECESSARILY THE PEOPLE SHE THOUGHT THEM TO BE X AND THAT HER ACCIDENT MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT AT ALL. AS SHE STRUGGLES TO BREAK FREE FROM HER LIVING DEATH, SHE BEGINS TO WONDER IF WHAT LIES AHEAD COULD BE EVEN WORSE. ""IT IS FIELDING`S ABILITY TO GET UNDER THE SKIN OF HER CHARACTERS X AND HER READERS X THAT HAS MADE HER SUCH A DEPENDABLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR,"" SAYS THE CALGARY HERALD. SMART, SUSPENSEFUL, AND OVERWHELMINGLY ADDICTIVE, STILL LIFE IS A NOVEL HER FANS WON`T SOON FORGET. सौंदर्य आणि श्रीमंती यांचे वरदान लाभलेल्या केसीला एक भरधाव कार उडवून लावते. केसी कोमात जाते; अंथरुणाला खिळते.... केसी पुन्हा भानावर येईल, तिचे पुढे काय होईल, अशा प्रश्नांचा विचार करत केसीचे जवळचे नातेवाईक व खास मित्रमैत्रिणी तिच्याभोवती येत-जात असतात; तिच्याविषयी बोलत असतात. शरीर निश्चल असलेल्या; पण मनाने भानावर असलेल्या केसीला; तिच्याविषयीच्या या बोलण्यातून अनेक रहस्ये उलगडायला लागतात... जीवनमरणाच्या सीमारेषेवर असलेल्या केसीला विलक्षण थरारक घटनाचक्रातून जावे लागते.... केसीची ही कथा केवळ रहस्ये उलगडत नाही, तर मानवी मनाचे कोपरे उत्कंठावर्धक शैलीत आपल्यासमोर उघडे करते.
