I read this book years ago and I cant for the life of me remember the name. It is not a religious book but more of a general fiction. She is a delinquent of some kind and dies in a fire but she is informed that she is on the border so she must earn her way into either heaven or hell. She is assigned to help and older man who is also not so nice so that he may also enter heaven. The cover is white at the top and red at the bottom kind of depicting heaven and hell and there is a pitchfork in the title if I remember correctly.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Meg, kicked out of her house by her stepfather after her mother dies, becomes a troublemaker. When she and her friend Belch attempt to rob Lowrie McCall, an elderly neighbor, a nearby gas tank inadvertently explodes and she finds herself in a tunnel, hurtling toward the beyond. Meanwhile, Saint Peter and Beelzebub argue over Meg's soul–she is not really a bad kid but neither is she a very good one. In order to decide her fate, they send her back to Earth, where she must try to patch things up with Lowrie. After a rough beginning, she and the dying man embark on a quest to help him right the mistakes that he made during his life. Their adventures are both humorous and poignant, as Lowrie confronts his regrets and Meg strives to attain salvation.
