Have you ever thought of meeting people in the heaven again after your death? If you are curious about how the character feels about that, this will be a suitable book for you! It is an inspiring story about an old man, Eddie, who dies on the day of his 83th birthday. It opens at an amusement park, Ruby Pier where he works routinely as a maintenance worker every day. His works are mainly about spreading grease, tightening bolts and performing other mechanical tasks which are very tedious. However, he has no option, but just work because it’s hard for an old man with a crippled leg to find another job to work. While he is teaching a junior staff to repair a ride, one of the carts suddenly separates and falls down to the pier. In an attempt to prevent the little girl from being hurt by the falling cart, Eddie pushes her out of the affected area, but he dies eventually. After that, Eddie embarks on a journey in the heaven where he will subsequently meet five people again. The people include his father, his wife, and the girl he accidentally killed during the war and so on. All these make him reflect and learn several lessons about life in various ways.
