Oh my word! I was asked to read and review Over My Dead Body, but I had NO idea how entertaining this novel would be – I couldn’t put it down until I finished the last page!

If you like a GOOD mystery/detective story, you will LOVE this book. Excellent writing and character development; and expertly builds up the suspense. I couldn't put it down, then didn't want it to end, because it's hard to find such an entertaining book!
— S. Sehon
Over My Dead Body is a well-crafted mystery. It captures the characters and spirit of life in a small Texas town. The mystery to be solved is perfect for the setting - no unbelievable villains, no secret societies - just ordinary crimes hidden in plain sight, where nobody sees it. Father Frank and Georgia are a potent crime-fighting team - lots of fun!
— Adele Weitz
Callan’s Father Frank stories are always a treat and this latest is no exception. If you enjoy well drawn characters, a gripping plot and twists to keep you guessing, this is a book you’ll want to add to your reading list.
—John R. Lindermuth, Author of Sooner than Gold
Father Frank at it again. I love these books. Great character development. Plot is very tricky, with many possible suspects. … Waiting for the next in the series.

Over My Dead Body by James R. Callan had all the components of a great mystery: an intriguing plot, believable and likeable characters and a satisfying conclusion. I highly recommend this Father Frank mystery.

This is a can't-stop-reading-and-put-it-down book. The second in his Father Frank mysteries, author James R. Callan has once again penned a winner.
— Piney Woods Books
This is a great book to read when you want to relax and simply enjoy a story. The characters of Father Frank and Georgia Peitz offer some humor along with their sleuthing. The twists kept me guessing, and although I thought I knew early on who-done-it, I was wrong!
— Mary L. Hamilton
Over My Dead Body by James R. Callan had me guessing until the very end. … You won’t want to put it down.
