When Dorothy came back from the dead, Aaron noticed that some people simply ignored the fact, some seemed to have forgotten that she had died and others just walked right on by. The accident that killed Dorothy - involving an oak tree, a sun porch and some elusive biscuits - leaves Aaron bereft in a wrecked house. As those around him fuss and flap and bring him casserole after casserole, Aaron busies himself at work at the family firm, publishing a successful series of Beginner's Guides to every stage and aspect of life. But then Dorothy starts to materialise in the oddest places. At first she only comes for a short while, leaving Aaron longing for more. Gradually, she stays for longer and as they talk they also bicker...and Aaron gradually realises that maybe, as a beginner himself, there is a way of saying goodbye.
