The Devil wants Noami’s baby (Peter), and he’s instructed Gunari to deliver the baby to him. Reluctant at first, Gunari agrees for fear of his family’s safety. However, after speaking with his sister, she convinces him to return the child to his mother. Gunari’s thwarted the Devil’s plan. If only. Years later, the Devil is determined to enact his plan by any means necessary. What ensues is unfortunate chaos, violence, and death, leaving only one person to stop this madness from happening, and they do so from beyond the grave.
Readers and fans of Keith Steinbaum’s literary work get ready for an action-packed, captivating read as he delivers In Lieu of Flowers! This book is as entertaining and suspenseful as his last two novels, The Poe Consequence and You Say Goodbye. You are in for a delightful treat as you meet lively characters and become enthralled by vivid scenes and an extraordinary narrative.
The book cover and synopsis fascinated me, and once I read the content, I was immediately engrossed in this promising novel. I also appreciate Steinbaum’s religious references and appreciation of the disability community. In Lieu of Flowers is a wonderful addition to his other books. Keith Steinbaum’s In Lieu of Flowers will be available later this month.
