Life After is the third novel in the MARIELA CHRONICLES quadrilogy. It follows Mariela beyond death into Data, an afterlife where remembered figures persist according to public memory and power. Sorted into colour-coded quads and governed by unseen "keepers," Data is ruled by despots, markets, and surveillance, with women rare and tightly controlled. Brilliant, manipulative, and convinced of her own righteousness, Mariela navigates tyrants, capitalism, and bodily commodification while plotting to bend Data's rules - especially around reproduction and legacy. As she seeks to rewrite history itself, Life After reveals how power, feminism, and myth repeat across worlds, setting the stage for the final reckoning of the quadrilogy.
