It is never a good sign when one’s funeral only has six people in attendance. Wallace Price finds himself extremely disappointed by the “celebration” of life in this audio excerpt from Under the Whispering Door by TJ Klune. Neither his ex-wife nor his former partners from the law firm seem to mourn his loss. Wallace begins to suspect perhaps his life and his accomplishments weren’t as successful as he believed.
