The Bureau of Eternal Affairs

When Maria, a poor, Black single mother from the favelas, dies, she expects to find peace in Heaven. Instead, she's denied entry.

Outraged and heartbroken, Maria refuses to accept her fate. After a lifetime of sacrifice and unshakeable faith, how could she be turned away? Determined to challenge divine bureaucracy - or perhaps even expose cosmic prejudice - she sets out on an impossible journey through Purgatory and Limbo in search of justice and answers.

Along the way, Maria discovers that the afterlife is no paradise. It's a tangled web of rules, endless queues, and absurd hierarchies that mirror the inequalities she faced on Earth. To claim her rightful place in Heaven, she'll have to confront not only the celestial system but her own beliefs about faith, forgiveness, and the meaning of salvation.

Blending dark humour, sharp social criticism, and spiritual imagination, The Bureau of Eternal Affairs is a bold, irreverent exploration of life, death, and everything in between.

Because if divine justice can fail the most faithful among us... what hope is left for the rest of humanity?
