Description

"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Peregrine's Rest." Thus does Hesper Dance begin the tour of her world, the historic cemetery of which she is resident caretaker, and where she has taken refuge from a bewildering despair.

But her search for answers and renewal among the gravestones is interrupted when she grudgingly takes on an assistant, the restless and self-styled explorer Quentin Pike, and meets a neighbor, seventy-year- old comic book collector Lydia Webkin. Interwoven and sometimes clashing, the personal quests of these three bring them low comedy, high pathos, danger, and a revelation or two from both the living and the dead.

Conjuring up both Gothic literary traditions and pop culture pastimes, this novel invites the reader to explore faith, desire, and death by following their paths among the monuments.
