Shirley Booth-Byerly has been addicted to the study of genealogy since childhood; she loves the never-ending battle of discovering subtle links, possibilities, impossibilities, and misconceptions. In God, Ghosts, and Grannies, she tells the story of her family—where they came from and how they settled in South Alabama and Northwest Florida. Telling the events as literary nonfiction and taking genealogy to a new level, her story shares insights from six generations, six unique individuals, each viewing life from slightly skewed, rose-colored glasses. Shirley melds humor, drama, and a living experience with research, resources, and revelations. Gods, Ghosts, and Grannies narrates a story of people’s lives, their hopes, their dreams, and the realities they faced while struggling, working, and tending their homes; the same homes that convey tranquil memories, laughter, sunshine, and contentment—memories forever gone when no one is left to tell the stories or no one cares to listen.

When Granny dies, everyone in the family heaves a sigh of relief. She was a difficult old woman and not easy to live with. So when the unmistakably transparent form of Granny appears at the tea table, both adults and children are alarmed. Why is Granny’s spirit so restless? It appears the young apprentice angel assigned to guide her spirit to heaven hasn’t been doing her job. Whether Granny goes upstairs or down below now hangs in the balance – and Granny’s bad temper doesn’t help. The ensuing tussle between the devilish form of Mr. Brimstone and his bumbling angelic counterpart for the old lady’s soul leaves Granny in limbo and the family in crisis. When Granny’s ghost disappears, it’s left to young Anna, with a few angelic companions, to seek her at the very doors of Hellmouth. GHOST GRANNY by bestselling author Melanie Guile is a funny, fast-moving, and entertaining read with thoroughly engrossing characters.
