Bella Mackie writes horrible people really well. Everyone in this book is obsessed: self obsessed, wealth obsessed, status obsessed. They’re all obnoxious, frankly.

When Anthony Wistern dies (was it an accident or murder?!), no one is particularly upset. He left enough money behind, after all.

This is told from 3 viewpoints: dead Anthony, his “grieving” wife, Olivia, and an internet True Crime investigator called The Sleuth.

This is a dark, at times hilarious, comedy of errors. There are numerous twists and turns, as well. I loved the sections from the Afterlife, with its many rules that maddened Anthony - he’s not a fan of rules.

I loved listening to this on Xigxag, performed by Kimberley Capero, Gabrielle Glaister, and Colin Mace. They all acted suitably obnoxious and/ or unhinged!
