The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy

by Megan Bannen

2022 · 448 pages · Fiction

Set in the magical land of Tanrid, Hart is a lonely marshal and Mercy is a struggling undertaker. Unaware of each other's true identities, they begin an anonymous correspondence that blossoms into a deep connection, even as they bicker incessantly in person. This whimsical, "You've Got Mail"-inspired fantasy blends a unique world of gods and zombies with a heartfelt, slow-burn romance. It is a poignant exploration of grief, loneliness, and finding love in the most unexpected, macabre places.

A well-known book with a dedicated readership.
