Product Description
‘Funny and smart. . . a top-class, deep-dish murder mystery and one of my favourite books of any year.’ IAN MOORE
‘Gloriously absurdist, darkly comic and utterly readable.’ HELEN LEDERER
SHORTLISTED FOR THE COMEDY WOMEN IN PRINT PRIZE
An original and darkly comedic murder mystery about a female personified Death in modern-day London. Perfect for fans of Good Omens, The Good Place and Sophie Kinsella.
‘Such an unusual and unique concept. . . By far one of my favourite books.’ 5-STAR Reader Review
‘Darkly funny, uniquely absurd and madly entertaining . . . I could practically hear Louis Armstrong crooning What a Wonderful World in the background.’ 5-STAR Reader Review
Her job is to die for. Literally.
Most people think that when they meet Death, it’ll be a skeleton in a black potato sack. Maybe with a scythe. Truth is, she’s just a woman doing a job, and she’s very good at it.
But when Death takes a much-needed break to live on earth, things start to go terribly wrong.
Someone’s killing people not on her list (well, not yet anyway) and it’s down to her to find the culprit before it’s too late.
To make matters worse, her sanctimonious sister, Life – whom Death hasn’t got on with in millennia – won’t stop blaming her . . . And then there’s the slight problem of the charming (sexy) parasitologist she’s suspicious of.
But she’ll be fine, right?
After all, who better to investigate a murder than Death herself?
Quirky, fun and witty, this is Death like you’ve never seen her before. A lover of bright colours, a fierce protector of nature and a human falling in love for the first time. Death’s sharp voice will linger in your mind long after you’ve read.
‘Wonderfully observed and brilliantly imagined. . . I never knew what was coming next, but at every point, it made me fall more in love with life.’ LUAN GOLDIE
‘Original and clever. . . a tour de deathly force.’ ALICE BELL
‘A total SCREAM.’ JANICE HALLETT
Runner-up for the Comedy Women in Print Prize 2023 (unpublished category)
