Description

One dead mayor. Zero chance of staying out of trouble

In 1957 Clayburn, Mississippi, Darlene works at the local cinema and dreams of Hollywood stardom. But when the town's mayor drops dead of a heart attack -- in her bedroom -- Darlene's future suddenly dims as she faces a scandal that could send her to jail.

Determined to keep her dream of being the next Marilyn Monroe, Darlene recruits Richie, a broke gas station attendant, and Tommy Ray, whose best quality is... enthusiasm, to help sneak the mayor's body back home before anyone, especially his high-society wife, finds out where he really died. Darlene, Richie, and Tommy Ray navigate their way through a series of comical obstacles and near misses as the trio tries to pull off the ultimate cover-up.

"Laid to Rest," a short fiction romp of about 15,000 words, is a humorous adventure that will leave readers cheering for its plucky heroine and her unlikely accomplices.
