Narrated by: Virtual Voice

If you've never felt like you fit in...if you ever wondered about the sanity of those around you, then you will love Drew Watkins' story about growing up in the bizarre world of a funeral home, where the dead seemed more alive than the living.

Surrounded by dead bodies and a family who might as well BE dead, Drew must learn how to navigate a confining life filled with rules she does not understand nor agree with.

Befriending a homeless woman who shares a love of books with her, Drew realizes there is more to life than the death surrounding her. It takes a homeless woman, a Mexican family, and the corpses in the cellar to show Drew what she is made of and how special she truly is. And as she grows up and discovers her own path, Drew struggles to release herself from the shackles of a childhood that continues to reach for her from the grave.

In the end, as she fights for her own identity, as she struggles to overcome obstacles thrown in her way, Drew Watkins understands one very true thing about life:

There is Nothing Fair About It.
