Publisher's summary

Based on over 25 years of spirit communication and thousands of professional readings, world-famous medium James Van Praagh shares the personal regrets, misgivings, remorse, and, most important, the advice of the dead who have chosen him as a medium. These spirits have a great deal to say about what they have learned and discovered on the other side and how we, the living, can benefit from their experiences.

Unfinished Business is filled with shocking and emotional stories of Van Praagh's communication with loved ones who cross over the barrier between the living and the dead to send messages to those whom they have left behind.

Through these profound true stories, Van Praagh guides us on an adventure into the spirit world. The lessons for the living that he has learned from these experiences range from the dangers of emotional baggage caused by guilt, fear, and regret to the importance of karma, forgiveness, and taking responsibility for our actions. Van Praagh shares with us now the wisdom that, without him, we would only gain after death.

Bone Chilling! Must Listen!

Any additional comments?

I am the type of person who are on the fence when it comes to supernatural; ghost, spirits etc. However, after listening to this book, I have became curious on what is my purpose here on earth.
This book serves you to find what your life's purpose and the others who came in/out of your life.

Well written...brilliant!

There is A LOT of information packed into this book. I'm sure I'll be listening to it multiple times, which I think is great. I'm confident this book found me and I'm so grateful to James for writing it. It is positive, easy to follow and encouraging to be the best version of yourself! I'm so excited to start becoming more conscious, aware and positive in my approach to life and in every interaction with others. This book is exactly what I needed to get out of my negative slump.

ALWAYS Enlightening

James Van Praagh is an excellent writer and teacher. I enjoy all the books I've read. This one was a bit darker due to the subject matter. He helps us see how important it is to forgive and ask forgiveness as soon as possible.

I Love the Book Unfinished Business

I just finished reading James Van Prague's book about life after death and what spirits can teach us. His amazing insight (or should I say "sight") and wonderful storytelling ability combine to show us the way to live our lives today for an even better after life! My only criticism is that he, like so many other artists do, used his platform to push political agendas that might seem universally appropriate to him from his view at his sea-side estate, but are prejudiced and uninformed sentiments that lessened my fervor for his overall message. Pity. Still, I love the man and his books. I'm sure he speaks directly from his heart. I sent it to four people!

Another great book

Talking to Heaven (by James) was the first book I read about the other side.. That was in the 90's and since then I've read and listened to many of his books, including this one. It's narrated by someone other than James, but still a very good listen.. His books never disappoint.
Fascinating stories of his communication with the other side.
