The story revolves around a young woman named Mary Cabot, who is grieving the loss of her brother Royal during the American Civil War.

As Mary begins to explore this idea, she becomes more open to the possibility of communication with her brother and begins to have visions of him. She also meets a young man named David, who shares similar beliefs about the afterlife.

Phelps' writing is both poetic and insightful, and her characters are well-developed and relatable.

Phelps was the author of fifty-seven volumes of fiction, poetry and essays. A Singular Life is one of her best known works. The Gates Ajar is one of her major works. It begins: One week; only one week today, this twenty-first of February. I have been sitting here in the dark and thinking about it, till it seems so horribly long and so horribly short; it has been such a week to live through, and it is such a small part of the weeks that must be lived through, that I could think no longer, but lighted my lamp, and opened my desk to find something to do.
