"Ever since his parents' funeral, Casey Kight felt a comfort and ease among morticians that he knew nowhere else in the world. He decided right then, at the age of nine, what he wanted to be when he grew up...an undertaker. The day he turned twenty-one, Casey joined the ranks of Morton-Albright, a family-owned-and-operated mortuary in the small Florida town of Angel Shoals.".

"Immediately, he feels right at home. He seems to have a gift for embalming. The Morton and Albright families welcome him like the family he never had. The quirky and mischievous Natalie Albright is the girl he's always dreamed of. And within the walls of Morton-Albright, Casey feels a reassuring presence that calms him like nothing ever has before.".

"But his happiness will be short-lived if the mortuary falls victim to a rapacious funeral home giant. With family secrets being uncovered, wills being contested, and rumors of illegal funeral practices circling, the lives entwined in this funeral home become filled with intrigue, deception, and, of course, death."--BOOK JACKET.
