The First Phone Call from Heaven tells the story of a small town on Lake Michigan that gets worldwide attention when its citizens start receiving phone calls from the afterlife. Is it the greatest miracle ever or a massive hoax? Sully Harding, a grief-stricken single father, is determined to find out. An allegory about the power of belief--and a page-turner that will touch your soul--Albom's masterful storytelling has never been so moving and unexpected.
Readers of The Five People You Meet in Heaven will recognize the warmth and emotion so redolent of Albom's writing, and those who haven't yet enjoyed the power of his storytelling, will thrill at the discovery of one of the best-loved writers of our time.

The First Phone Call From Heaven was a real nice read. It’s written beautifully. The slow pace at the first half of the book is compensated by the fast pace at the other half where things get really into action.
The point about this book is that it shows how people can get attached to a certain belief no matter true or false. It’s the contradiction between what’s true and what we want to be true.
