Description: Meg Finn is in trouble. Cast out of her home by her stepfather after her mom's death, Meg is a wanderer, a troublemaker. But after her last stunt, finding a place to sleep is the least of her worries. Belch, Meg's partner in crime, has gotten her involved in the attempted robber of an elderly man, Lowrie McCall. But things go horrible wrong. After an accidental explosion, Meg's spirit is flung into limbo, and a race begins between the demonic and the devine to win Meg's soul. Meg's really not a bad kid, but she hasn't exactly been an angle either, so the tally of her good and evil is dead even. Her only change on tipping the scales to salvation is to go back to Earth and do good-specifically, to help Lowrie McCall. He's got many regrets in his life to set right-a "Wish List"- and not much time left to do it. But even Meg can persuade Lowrie to get mixed up with her, she's going to have to deal with an even scarier, undead Belch- who's definitely on the side of the devil.

Meg Finn doesn't care were she lives right now or what she does, so as a favor, she helps, Belch (her partner in crime) in a robbery in Lowrie McCall's house. But then when something goes wrong it ends up with Belch in hell and with Meg....neither. All her good and bad deeds are even!The only way to get to heaven is to go back to earth and help Lowrie McCall with his life.He has a lot of regrets in his life so he has made up as,"Wish List". Meg and Lowrie half to do all of the things for both of them to get to Heaven.

I really liked this book and I recommend this book to all of you. But if you are really Biblical, I would have your mom or dad read it first.

Also-there is a little bit of language in her,But I still really liked it!
