Death and Sex follows Lee Vale and Mara Ellison, two damaged, intelligent adults who meet at the funeral of Julian, a man each had loved differently, and are drawn together by grief, desire, and the unsettling recognition they see too much of one another too quickly. Their relationship deepens through intimacy, wit, and the difficult beauty of being known, but fractures under the pressure of loss, emotional asymmetry, and Mara's increasing fear. As death keeps reshaping their lives, Death and Sex traces how mourning can isolate people or drive them into one another with a new honesty.
