每一个人的成长经历往往是艰苦的,特别是当您面对死亡之时。 对于女主角George Lass,生活是乏味的,每日只是做着一些沉闷的工作,在家亦只能够感到少少的温暖,莫非这个便是命运?但世事往往会令人惊喜,George在她新上任的工作中遇到意外而身亡,随后更被选中成为在其它人临死时出现,把灵魂带走的死神 (Grim Reaper)。 从此,她便以一个全新的身份,与其它一同被选中的死神一起,执行这个非常刺激的任务。虽然死神的工作对George 而言很有新鲜感,但她却需要时间去适应这个全新的生活,以及习惯面对着弱小的生命死亡但却无能为力。Meet Georgia Lass (who prefers to be called George). She is a young Seattle college dropout who is unhappy with life. She is always at odds with her mom, Joy. One day coming back from her temp job as a filing clerk, she is hit by the toilet seat of the re-entering Space Station Mir. Finding out she is now dead, she is recruited to become a grim reaper. As in life, she is a pain in the butt in death. She does not like the details of her job, and is always at loggerheads with her boss Rube. Her fellow grim reapers don't really take much of a liking to her either. She also learns grim reapers don't even get a free ride in death, as they must hold down regular jobs along with their death duties.
