Product Description
When Jacob Ridgehorn dies, it's up to Roby Snow to make sure his soul goes on to the eternal reward. The only way Roby can do that is convince the Ridgehorn family to eat a special pie. Lurking in the shadows is a mysterious figure named Johnny Divine, monitoring the crossroads between the living and the dead. Southern Appalachian funeral customs get crossed when Roby has to perform miracles...or else.

A ridiculously quick read.
I guess this is really a short story.
And I couldn't write much about it or else it'll just give the whole plot away.
I was expecting this to be more spooky than it really was, so now I'm a little bummed by the non-spookiness.
But it's interesting to read about death, sittings and the food served in these sittings. The funerals and the sittings I've been to have no food involved...
The ending, or when the whole interconnectness of things happening were revealed, then it raised the spooky levels for a bit, but nothing scary.

Actually it's got me to thinking that this could be a series!
