About this listen

Hello? 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 . . .

Critic reviews

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. (JANICE HALLETT)
Thoroughly wicked, compulsively page-turning, and funny as hell. (S J BENNETT)

Loved this!

Brilliantly funny and brilliantly plotted! I especially loved the ultra snarkiness between Miriam and Winnie, and the author did a great job with the narration. Definitely worth a listen if you like Richard Osman. Hope there are more to come.

Great performance of an entertaining story

Love Maz Evans children’s books? Then you will love this one too! Her fabulous style translates well to this murder mystery with some great twists. She narrates in a really engaging manner creating life size characters you can relate to.

Laugh out loud funny

Irreverent, touching and original. Such a btilliant idea with very sartisfying outcomes - Dr Mirriam is hatefully witty and surprisingly kind - really uplifting read.

Stayed up all night to listen

I loved the whole book, I ended up listening to the whole book in one sitting.
I love it when it’s read by the author as you get to hear it as it was written in their imagination. My only problem was Max sometimes read to quickly.

I Loved the oration and the sarcastic, dry humour. Quite often the book had me I laughing my head off whilst I was driving.
