Romantic sci-fi set in the near future. Sal's sister Ebe, who watches her brother with growing concern, suggests him try "The Other End," a new technology that promises to ease the pain of separation by briefly reviving the consciousness of the deceased person. That's how Sal finds Zoe again – but in another woman's body. It's a body he doesn't recognize, but in which he is mysteriously able to see his wife. "The Other End" actually gives Sal time to share a little more of his life with Zoe, to love her again, to be loved by her, and finally to say goodbye to her.
