Review: dark but still Inman's usual great wit.

I have to admit I saw the ending coming a mile away even if Jason didn't. But it didn't ruin the novel for me. It made it even more suspenseful and poignant, watching Jason's slow realization of the truth. This has Inman's lovely wit, sweet romance, and an adorable geriatric dog, but it is also a fairly chilling ghost story and mystery. And I mean I got real chills reading this late last night! Also, I love how Inman never fails to make the bad guys receive their just desserts. Pun intended in the case of Loving Hector! : ) He dispenses justice Old Testament style in satisfyingly violent ways!
