Charming, fun and just the slightest bit sexy, this book alternates between two different narrative voices. The author dies in the opening and returns to avenge the death of his wife. Written from that perspective and alternating with that of the disaffected young woman who moves into his house after his death, the book is self reflective and warm.
It is set on Mount Desert Island, Maine and has a lovely sense of place. It is also a real page turner with lot's of gratuitous death puns. I couldn't put it down.
