Kevin
Kevin Andrews was soon to turn Twenty. And on a warm, summer morning he accidently stepped out in front of a bus while texting his BFFs world-wide. Having lived a privileged life, he had not yet accomplished anything to define himself as good or evil in the hereafter, and is devastated to find himself rejected by Heaven and seated in Hell.
Unfortunately, Lucifer doesn’t think Kevin is ‘his’ kind of people either. He sends Kevin back to face his life as a ghost to find even one moment, one thought in his past, that proves he’s ‘good’ enough to be allowed into Hell. “After all,” Lucifer warns him, “The loneliest place to spend eternity is your own life after you can’t change it anymore.”
What Kevin does find is a horrific truth that existed right under his very nose. Now he has a moral choice for the ages: Follow Lucifer’s instructions and search his own life for some forgotten misstep, or defy the Prince Of Darkness and do what he somehow believes to be the right thing.

Creepy yet interesting
Wow! After reading My Fathers Ashes I searched out other books by the author and bought them all not really looking close enough at their content. So I was horrified and sickened when I realized I was reading a book so far out of my comfort zone. But once in I felt I had to find out just what the author was trying to get me to see? In the end I think I got it? We all have something we can do that's good. A way to make a difference in the world around us. Kevin, was never looking at the world around him. He existed in a bubble. A world of disconnect with social media, game stations and tv. He failed to see what was right in front of him. He failed to see good or evil in people because he didn't connect to people. When he dies and both God and the Devil don't want him he is forced to live life as a shadow. His goal, to find a reason the Devil would want him. Can you imagine even knowing how that would feel? I'm bad enough I know I don't deserve heaven but I'm blessed enough to know He loves me. Kevin finds things as a shadow aren't as easy to remain oblivious to as it was when he was alive. The message is good even when delivered in a creepy horrific way.
