&quot;After-death communications,&quot; or &quot;ADCs, &quot; occur when someone is contacted <i>spontaneously</i> and <i>directly</i> by a deceased family member or friend, without the help of any medium. The authors' research shows that these spiritual experiences offer hope, love, and comfort for thousands of people. Included are more than 350 first-hand accounts of those whose lives have been changed and even protected by messages or signs from the deceased.
