Death and Other Occupational Hazards

Death and Other Occupational Hazards by Veronika Dapunt

SHORTLISTED FOR THE COMEDY WOMEN IN PRINT PRIZE Good Omens meets Bella Mackie in this wickedly funny, joyful and twisted murder mystery. 'I could practically hear Louis Armstrong crooning What a Wonderful World in the background' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Beautifully bonkers' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'I laughed, I cried (no, seriously, I ugly cried)⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Death is having an existential crisis – and honestly, she needs some time off. But the minute she arrives in London for a well-earned break, everything goes terribly wrong: 1. People still insist she’s a scythe-wielding skeleton in a black sack. Spoiler: she’s a woman who'd love a wardrobe upgrade, thanks. 2. Life, her sanctimonious sister, blames her for, well, everything. 3. A string of murders occurs off-schedule. Nothing ruins a holiday quite like an admin disaster. 4. A charming (sexy) scientist shows up, and, of course, he’s hiding something. 5. And she’s stuck in a mortal body . . . while there's a killer on the loose. But she’ll be fine, right? After all, who better to investigate a murder than Death herself? PRAISE FOR DEATH AND OTHER OCCUPATIONAL HAZARDS: 'One of my favourite books of any year' IAN MOORE 'A total SCREAM' JANICE HALLETT 'There are shades of Terry Pratchett in Dapunt's debut novel . . .
