Afterlove

Ages 14 to 18

In this supernatural lesbian romance, a girl who becomes a grim reaper must figure out what the future holds - especially when it comes to the girlfriend she left behind.

As the last person to die before midnight on New Year's Eve, Ashana Persaud is bestowed the title of reaper, tasked with finding lost souls and helping them cross over. Only those close to death can perceive a reaper, so when Ashana runs into her girlfriend Poppy one lonely night - and Poppy recognizes her - they can't be sure if it's the second chance they've so desperately wished for, or a tragedy lying in wait.
