Bathing with the Dead

By Ray Else

Chosen by the Gods to be sacrificed?

Despite her fear of flying, Fernanda accompanies her new husband Randy, an IBM consultant, to the oldest city in the world, Varanasi, India. Fernanda is overwhelmed by the strangeness of the place, the outdoor burning of the dead on the steps leading down to the holy Ganges river, the pilgrims mingling on the steps along with water buffalo and orange-robed ascetics. She decides to spend a week in the more tranquil north, unintentionally leaving her husband to the charms of a former French colleague of his. But there is more at play here as her husband is snagged in a murder and embezzlement scheme, and the Hindu Gods themselves get involved in the fates of our lovers.
