Description

'I wolfed down this brilliant book' ADAM KAY

'Immensely clever and moving, dark and mature, a reflection on loss, on our compartmentalised selves, delivered in a gripping mystery' MHAIRI McFARLANE

'A deliciously dark departure for Justin Myers, full of twists and turns and plenty of laughs, too' BOBBY PALMER

Laurie Blount, enfant terrible of the West End, the voice of a generation, a shining star.


Also: dead. Very, very dead.

Killed in a car crash in the middle of the night, Laurie exited this world the way he lived his life - dramatically and dangerously.

Laurie 's husband Jo, best friend Vivi and goddaughter Rosy must step out from grief 's shadow and face life without him. Until rumours of Laurie 's unpublished memoir begin to haunt the group. Waspish, wicked and witty, these confessions reveal a side to Laurie nobody really knew . . . or would admit to knowing. But can the words of a dead man be trusted?

Laurie 's grieving loved ones are about to discover that comedy and tragedy are the same mistakes, made under different lighting. If Jo, Vivi and Rosy are ever to find peace in the future, they might need to lift the curtain on Laurie 's past - as well as their own.

Can a dead man shatter your life one chapter at a time?

'Myers does it again - crafting a moving mediation on art, love, loss and what it means to be happy in a world that has passed you by . . . You'll wish Laurie Blount was your friend. Until you very much don't' CARL ANKA

'I'm going to be thinking about Laurie, Jo and Vivi for a long time to come. I was already a massive fan of Justin's writing, and now I'm officially a creep' LUCY VINE

'Witty and devastatingly astute . . . Myers writes his characters masterfully, his controlled and precise storytelling leading us down a path that feels more dangerous and thrilling with each step' LAURA KAY
