A long time ago at the Crossroads, the great bluesman Robert Johnson sang "Judgment Day" and judgment did rain down upon the world. Now, a little girl named Lisa is the only hope for humanity's redemption, but she  and her mother Emma must face what happens when Lisa dies and comes back to life ... again. Little Lisa and the greatest bluesmen of all time, from Leadbelly to Stevie Ray Vaughan, and even Dead Elvis, confront angels, demons, and voodoo powers before the ultimate showdown in the ultimate city of music, heaven and hell: New Orleans. This is an apocalyptic, supernatural, Southern Gothic horror novel that some of our best horror writers say they wished they had written.  If you enjoy shows like The Walking Dead and Z-Nation, you will love Bone Music.

Through colloquial prose that's strong and perfectly pitched, Rodgers combines elements of horror (sometimes graphic), fantasy and magical realism into a unique novel that's not only an occult standout but a captivating memoir of an important slice of American culture.
