Mort Book 3: Tales by Mortimer, aka Death

Some lessons can only be learned from the dying. Mort, Book 3 continues the Southern Gothic anthology narrated by Mortimer, Death himself. This time, three souls force him to look closer at the lives he collects and the stories people leave behind. In "Edward's Last Dance," an old man's lifetime of impossible escapes raises a question even Death can't ignore. In "Unfinished Business," love refuses to let go, leaving Mort to face a house where the dead aren't ready to move on. In "Allen's Story," a dying teacher spends his final days looking back at love, betrayal, forgiveness, and the lives he changed along the way. Each story stands alone, but together they pull Mort toward something he never expected. The souls he collects may have just as much to teach him as he has to teach them. Some stories transform you. Some stories transform Death himself.
