Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his eighth deliciously funny novel, Clyde Edgerton introduces us to the irrepressible Lil Olive, who's recently arrived at the Rosehaven Convalescence Center to recuperate from a bad fall. Lil longs to be back in her own apartment, and since her driver's license doesn't expire until her ninety-seventh birthday, she also longs to get back behind the wheel of her sporty '89 Olds. To pass the time until independence, Lil strikes up some new friendships. Mrs. Maudie Lowe and Mrs. Beatrice Satterwhite, who are laying bets on whether Clara Cochran's glass eye comes out at night. And L. Ray Flowers, the freelance evangelical preacher with fancy white hair who sings his sermons, strums a mean guitar, and aspires to an even higher calling. Keeping a watchful eye on them all is Carl, Lil's middle-aged bachelor nephew with a heart of gold and the patience of a saint. But soon Rosehaven is turned upside down and the outcome is anyone's guess. Lil and the girls steal a car and hit the highway. L. Ray's vision of a national movement to unite churches and nursing homes (Nurches of America) is embraced by the residents. And then there's Darla Avery's dirty little secret, which could spell the end for the visionary preacher. Edgerton looks at the challenges of aging with sympathy, sensitivity, and his trademark sense of humor. Like the bestseller Walking Across Egypt, this is vintage Edgerton: wise, wistful, and laugh-out-loud funny.

Reba and Doug are happily married but their joyful and peaceful life is interrupted by a mischievous teenager and an ex-husband who won't stay gone. When Reba's ex-husband Johnny threatens to disrupt their happy home, one of Reba's sister friends comes to the rescue with a plan of her own. Her exposure enables Reba and Doug to maintain their blissful existence and ultimately survive the challenges of blending two families. Terri has hired a new housekeeper, Harvey. When she signed on to hire Harvey she had no idea she was also inheriting his drinking problem, his landlord and his incessant phobias. Harvey thinks he's a hot gay blade who has a fantasy that includes exterminating Terri's home of imaginary creatures. Harvey's landlord is clearly taking advantage of him—that is until Terri decides to teach her who the master manipulator really is. Lenora, whom you adored in Bellamy’s novel, Departures has a new occupation. She has founded the Life After Death program for death row inmates who wish to donate their organs. The convicts are all interesting characters in and of themselves—however, their stories are both surprising and shocking. Alas dear Amber has become a typical teenager. When Amber finds out she is in line to inherit a sizeable amount of money, she becomes hell-bent on circumventing her adopted father Horace's involvement and obtaining the money directly. Her plan is to live large and flex a little "bling-bling,” regardless of Horace's objections.

The folks of Departures and Connecting are at it again, but this time with added characters who are just as funny, realistic and down to earth as the originals.
