 As the dead begin to rise in a small Texas town, four generations of women must confront their past and prevent the undead from destroying their town. The Evans women have been tasked with keeping the dead dead and in the ground and their roles running the town's funeral parlor allows them to do that. However, 15 years prior, an incident almost destroyed the town and their family. Lindy Ryan paces this horror novel well and drops crumbs along the path without revealing too much until it's the right time. With plenty of gore and humor, Bless Your Heart is an outstanding entry for those who may not love horror, but are willing to give the genre a try. Thanks to Minotaur Books for the ARC.
