About this listen
Rose Malone is doing all right except that her daughter is struggling with PTSD, her lover is leaving her for the Appalachian Trail, and there’s a rumor that there’s a million bucks in the building she inherited which has inspired every money-hungry man in her weird little town to bring her cheap flowers and offer to search the place for her.
Max Reddy needs to get back to the Appalachian Trail; it’s hard to recover from a life of covert operations when you’re in a community of ex-agents. But that community also has a woman and her daughter he cares about more than he thought possible. If he hadn’t made it his mission to finish walking the Trail, he might stay, but he always finishes what he starts.
Then Max finds one of Rocky Start’s citizens dead in a coffin, and suddenly Max and Rose are after a killer in a town where a large percentage of the population is retired assassins. There’s the funeral director, the exterminator, the postmaster, the postmistress, the honey store owner, and the femme fatale, not to mention the handsome outsider journalist poking around for a story about serial killers.
And now the killer is aiming at new targets: Rose and Max.
Very Nice Funerals: Send flowers. Express your sympathy. Duck.

Critic reviews
“Narrators Cris Dukehart and Eric G. Dove return to the North Carolina/Tennessee town of Rocky Start, where most of the inhabitants are former spies.… Dukehart portrays Rose and her daughter, Poppy, while Dove portrays Max.… Dukehart brings a vibrancy to her portrayal of Rose. Dove gives Max an unflappable tone that matches his personality. Both narrators skillfully handle the large cast of characters who range from a German baker to the crazy killer.”—AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award Winner
