Produktbeschreibung

Discover a more lighthearted side of the funeral industry in this collection of real-life stories from the authors of Mortuary Confidential.

A literal graveyard of wild coincidences, slapstick humor, and touching moments, Over Our Dead Bodies explores the lighter side of the dead, the living, and the lone undertaker who must make it all go as planned-even if it doesn't.
