An utterly original, hilarious and heart-warming novel about a murdered woman investigating her own death, perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Janice Hallett and S J Bennett.
When the misanthropic Dr Miriam Price wakes up dead, her day has only just started to go wrong.
With everyone mistakenly thinking she killed herself, she's condemned to half a century in Limbo as a 'Death By Misadventure' - unless she can prove that she was murdered. Unable to communicate with anyone living, Miriam's investigative options look decidedly limited.
But she soon realises that Winnie, her elderly next-door neighbour - and mortal enemy - can see, hear and talk to her. The good news for Miriam is that the dying can interact with the dead. The bad news for Winnie is that if she can see Miriam, she hasn't got long to live. Now this unlikely detective duo must work together to solve Miriam's murder - and maybe avert Winnie's death - before time runs out for them both. And before they kill each other first...

Reviews
A very different take on a whodunnit. Warm, wacky and witty. I loved it!Laugh-out-loud hilarious, moving and life affirming. How can one book be so many things? I couldn't put this fabulous, first class, five star read down. Clever, wise and properly funny. An absolute triumph Thoroughly wicked, compulsively page-turning, and funny as hell. Sometimes a book comes along that reminds you why you fell in love with reading. Imaginative, witty and original...an absolute joy! A really entertaining read that will appeal to fans of Richard Osman Clever, multilayered and a joy! A triumph...there are also moving moments amid the hilarity Splendidly offbeat whodunnit....Evans knows how to make an unlikely plot seem entirely believable. Expand reviews
