The Indispensable Lottie Hot (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798902740032)

"When small-town mayor Lottie Hot drops dead after eating one of her husband's cookies, her picture-perfect life unravels from beyond the grave. As widower Anderson grapples with guilt, grief, and a voice in his head that sounds suspiciously like Lottie's, the novel veers into darkly comic territory--part domestic satire, part ghost story, part culinary adventure.

"The Indispensable Lottie Hot is a mordantly funny exploration of marriage, power, and the appetites that survive us. An innovative and gripping book from one of America's most exciting voices, Carl Ehnis demonstrates that storytelling done well can still astonish and engage readers, weaving together a vivid plot and characters who linger long after the last page."

--David Samuel Levinson, author of Tell Me How This Ends Well
