About this listen
CHOSEN BY WATERSTONES AS ONE OF THEIR BEST CRIME & THRILLER BOOKS OF 2024
'As a comedian, Bob Mortimer spins a shaggy-dog story like nobody else, and this is a rollicking old-school yarn' The Guardian
‘Mortimer’s verbal specificity and off-kilter humour will keep his fans chuckling’ The Times
WARNING - this book includes: heavy crimes, car journeys, dreadfulness, large fruits, romance, planning applications, and a lot of pie.
Gary Thorn is struggling with a big decision. Should he stay in London, wallowing in the safety of his legal job in Peckham and eating pies with his next door neighbour, Grace and her dog Lassoo, or should he move to Brighton, where his girlfriend Emily is about to open The Hotel Avocado? Either way, he’d be letting someone down.
But sinister forces are gathering in a cloud of launderette scented-vape smoke, and the arrival of the mysterious Mr Sequence puts Gary in an even worse predicament: soon he might be dead.
All Gary wants is a happy life. But he also wants to be alive to enjoy it…
THE HILARIOUS AND GRIPPING NEW NOVEL BY NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING AUTHOR BOB MORTIMER
‘Sweet and funny’ Closer
‘A stunning sequel… It’s genuinely difficult to put this book down – you’ll be entranced by Mortimer’s humour and obvious story-telling skills’ Press Association
‘Characters are layered with carefully observed detail and a huge serving of hilarity’ Heat©2024 Bob Mortimer (P)2024 Simon & Schuster UK

Another Good One
Loved the first book. And this one was equally as enjoyable. Bob is a legend. Lovely man. I highly recommend his autobiography. And Away…

Enjoyable jaunt
Following the continuing trials of Gary, Emily and Grace. This was a good read.
I don't feel it was quite as strong as the first book. However, I couldn't stop listening and really enjoyed it, well worth a listen, especially for fans of Bob, Paul and Sally who all did a great job.

Brilliantly engaging.
Bob Mortimer has a unique style which shines in his novels. I was engaged in the story but thoroughly enjoyed his use of words and expressions.
