Frontline: The Undertaking
$24.99
I used this DVD as part of the educational program at a hospital's pastoral care department. Students, staff, and volunteers are uniformly touched by its realism and sensitivity. It provokes thoughtful discussion.

The Undertaking: Life Studies from the Dismal Trade
$13.95
I was glancing over this book again tonight, in preparation for a book club discussion. I was amazed at how many passages that I had underlined, written, 'WOW!' next to, or bracketed. This is a fantasic collection of essays. Heart-wrenching and honest with a melodic poetry behind the words, I cannot recommend it highly enough. A profound piece of work of which Mr. Lynch can be proud. I especially recommend the final essay, written to the loved ones he will leave behind when he makes that final transition.

Foolish Undertaking: Buryin' Barry Mystery
$14.95
In Gainesboro, North Carolina, just before dying from cancer Montagnard expatriate Y'Grok Eban informs Boston cop Kevin Malone that the "Raven has come home" scaring the street tough police officer though he is not totally sure why. The brave Y'Grok saved many American lives during the Viet Nam war, but the exile never went home once he fled for the Carolina hills. Now a grand funeral befitting a genuine hero is planned that has caught the attention of the national media.

However, someone enters the Clayton & Clayton Funeral Home, knocking unconscious director Barry Clayton before apparently stealing the corpse of Y'Grok. Barry's friend local Sheriff Tommy Lee Watkins is upset for personal reasons because four decades ago Y'Grok saved his life when he served in Nam. Kevin, coming south for the funeral, joins forces with Tommy Lee and Barry an ex-cop to locate the body, learn the meaning of Y'Grok's last cryptic message and find out why something that happened forty years ago suddenly haunts those still living today over an ocean and a continent away.

Using a contemporary mystery, Mark de Castrique provides an intriguing look (through the memories of those gathering for the funeral) of the Viet Nam War in which the Montagnard served as loyal allies to the American troops. The search for the stolen corpse and the efforts to break Y'Grok's enigmatic last words turn into a strong investigative tale that spins into much more as the war still haunts these men while they each reflect back to try to define what the final words of their late brother in arms meant. FOOLISH UNDERTAKING is a fabulous thriller that grips the audience from the moment the corpse is purloined and never slows down until Raven comes home.
