The dead don't wait. But they do work in the factories, decide over policies, and hate to stay buried six feet under. Petula Upwood is about to find what the undead genuinely want. She follows strangers into the night to awaken a man who many would prefer to stay under. She will soon realize that being a necromancer is more about politics than perfecting the art of waking the dead. And she hates it. Herbert Ringworm, a sculptor and a werewolf-wrestler, is willing to kill to serve his justice. Not that easy when he is forced to pair with a genteel ghoul. The only thing he wants is Ona to be alive again. Morris Reinhardt, a banker, needs to get tonight right to save his late father's bank from the ruins by starting a conspiracy. He just isn't sure about his accomplices and should have known better than put Petula's life in danger. Everything is going haywire. If they want to survive tonight, they need to cooperate. Penny for Your Soul is an economic and political satire with humans, ghouls, and undead willing to do anything to have a win. It is full of personal stories and a few jokes about metaphysics and humanity.

The field was singing the coldest wind through our souls. Many kids were burning with fever. Some of us fell and slept in the middle of that area forever. We were holding our coughs, trying not to make any noise while passing through this open meadow when one of the older adults couldn't take it and started to cough. Breathing heavy, he fell to the ground. All of us started running. In a second, artillery shells destroyed our unity and exploded between us, then machine-gun shootings began. They didn't see us clearly in the dark, so they just sent a rain of bullets on us. We were tired enough to give up and just die and rest in peace. This earth doesn't seem to have any consensus on it, so why not die and finally be at peace? But I had to run for Lena, Lars, and so many more kids.
