Explora Books Features Vivian R. Probst's Award-Winning Death by Roses at BIBF 2026
What happens when a woman dies outraged at her husband? Death by Roses explores that question in a tenderly humorous dramedy that will be showcased by Explora Books at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair, held June 17-21 at the China National Convention Center (CNCC).Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 13th May 2026 - Mae Rose McElroy is a bitter woman, married to Art for 30 years. Through a spectacular series of events involving a dozen yellow roses, she ends up in the afterlife long before she's ready. Outraged to be dead, she stomps into higher realms, ready to argue with God for her life back. However, she must first undergo a "Reflection" on her recent past, during which she is stunned to learn that a wonderful life and marriage were always within her reach.
With this new insight, Mae Rose is determined to find a way back. She violates the divine "No Meddling" rule with such panache that she is indeed returned to Earth--but with a catch. Her spirit takes up residence in the dying body of Scary Mary Broadmoor, a famous horror movie producer who is perfectly fine with dying, provided she is finally granted an Oscar for her terrifying cinematic legacy.
With two opinionated, controlling women sharing one body, the situation begs the question: Is this hell, or a second chance? As buried family secrets come to light on a global stage, everyone involved discovers the amazing power of truth, forgiveness, and the beauty of starting over. "A love story for the ages." -- Foreword Magazine
Death by Roses showcases Probsts gift for blending the comic with the profound, drawing on a rich literary tradition of afterlife narratives--from Dante to Our Town--while firmly planting itself in a voice that is entirely her own.
Attendees of the Beijing International Book Fair are invited to discover Death by Roses at the Explora Books exhibit (Booth 5A.B14). The novel is also available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major retailers.
