the gospel of joan (Crawford)
by Sydney Green
Five would-be somebodies find themselves united in Hell, part of a trial run to solve Hell’s oncoming population problem. Faced with a poker match with the Devil’s right- turned dealer—the one and only Joan Crawford—these women must vie against each other for a spot in Heaven, all while contending sins, histories, sexual identity, and their own dispensability. Because winning is more than eternity—it is fame.
