'Thoroughly wicked, compulsively page-turning, and funny as hell.' S J BENNETT
'Warm, wacky and witty. I loved it!' SALLY PAGE'Clever, wise and properly funny. An absolute triumph.' LUCY MANGANHello Can you hear me Probably not. I'm Dr Miriam Price . . . and I'm dead.The local police, who couldn't investigate their own nostrils, think I drank myself into an early grave. The nerve! I was murdered. I was just too plastered to know whodunnit, that's all.Unless I prove to my inquest this week that my death was no 'misadventure', I'm condemned to 50 years in Limbo. I have to find my killer - but I can't communicate with any living human.Well, there's one, but she barely qualifies . . . Winnie - my neighbour and nemesis. It seems the dying can interact with the dead, which is helpful news for me, if not stellar for Winnie. Oh well. She'll live. Maybe. Suspects How long have you got My saintly husband, who'd reached his limit My best friend, who was anything but My secret lover, or his wife My disgruntled colleague The mother who wrongly holds me responsible for her child's death Professor Plum Your guess is as good as mine.So Winnie - slap on your deerstalker and strap on your granny pants. Let's catch a killer! Assuming we don't kill each other first . . .Praise for Maz Evans:'Wildly hilarious' The Guardian'Epically clever'' Kiran Millwood Hargrave'Simultaneously hilarious and heart-breaking' Daily RecordThoroughly wicked, compulsively page-turning, and funny as hell -- S J BENNETT
A very different take on a whodunnit. Warm, wacky and witty. I loved it!
