i’ve got really behind with updating around these parts. i remember enjoying this book, which is the first in a series featuring drew slocombe, the new boy at a funeral directors. obviously he’s going to end up poking into the deaths he comes across in the business. i wasn’t really convinced there was a series in this after this book but i did spend half the book saying “no drew, leave it alone, you’ll only get yourself sacked, stop sticking your nose into things!” which is probably a sign of good writing really. i’ll certainly try another in the series to see how drew gets on.
