Remote Control is a funny ,spirited adventure that looks at love in the afterlife

Remote Control is a spirited adventure told through the eyes of Judith McBride, a would be angel in heaven with an eye for meddling in the lives of those she loves the most on earth. Judith dies untimely from a certain embarrassing blockage of her own plumbing, which sets the humorous tone of this novel. Judith is a rebel marked by a disdain for rules and authority which upsets the spirit hierarchy in heaven. They have particular rules for how a soul is supposed to live in pursuit of spiritual growth. Judith ignores their warnings and is intent on being the guardian angel for her husband, Saul. No matter what the spirit guides say she wants to save him from the maneuvering of a blonde bombshell named, ML. Through nail biting romps Judith visits their love nest, her former home and watches as Saul gets rid of their dogs; the first sign of his quote un quote new life. With a voyeuristic horror and fascination Judith watches as her mild mannered husband transforms into a stud. Over time his love making with ML takes him to jaunts all over the world, spending their money and putting him in danger as a bungee jumping trip looms on the horizon. With mounting worry Judith schemes to disrupt ML's plans, her spend fast ways and save Saul once and for all. Along the way she interferes with destiny causing a rippling effect and risking others souls' growth, not just her own. Through it all Judith maintains her sharp wit as a rebel angel with a soul to save, but in the long run it's her own soul that she saves the most.

Well worth the time & money

Watching the main character Judith evolve from a controlling spirit to a more enlightened soul was a pleasure. Her spiritual journey revealed the true nature of love. I really enjoyed the ending!

Awesome book with wide appeal

I read Cynthia Polansky's "Remote Control" in two sittings. It is one of the funniest, most thought-provoking books I've read in a long time. Well drawn characters and a unique premise kept me engaged well into the night. I hope somebody makes it into a movie!
