This was a fun little novel that I originally added to my TBR for Wonderthon, and because it was the author's debut, and it made the Bram Stoker finalist list. What I wasn't expecting was a fun romp through Southeast Texas (a la Beaumont), in a small town where the Evans women run a funeral parlor while also keeping the restless dead underground. 

Part vampire novel, part mystery, part multi-generational story, this is a sweet little novel. 

I got a kick out of the narrator of the audiobook not knowing how to pronounce Whataburger, though, not gonna lie.
