Edi is facing a disciplinary since her ‘incident’ at work. Forty-seven years in Admin processing the newly dead is not how she foresaw eternity. Equipped with a questionnaire, she must help each new arrival weigh up their good and bad deeds, face who they really were in life, and release their delusions in death. Under surveillance by the anonymous HR team, Edi is on her best behaviour. By keeping her head down, she hopes to finally catch a glimpse of the son she left behind on earth all those years ago. But HR appear to be hiding something. When suddenly the number of arrivals start shooting up, rumours begin to fly. Some say humans are about to become a banned race. The earth itself will be repossessed. Edi realises that a mass extinction event is about to be watched by the entire universe, and her chance at reunion may finally be about to arrive. Against the most spectacularly beautiful backdrop of stars, constellations and comets, chaos ensues, and the human race collectively has to make a choice about exactly what they might be willing to do to save themselves. With profound reflections on love, defiance and light, The Delusions is a story of human connection on an unprecedented scale.
