Man, the Beta Male has some problems. Charlie Asher suddenly finds himself a widower with a newborn child. If that wasn't enough change in his life, he finds out that he has a new job: Death.
A book about grief, and processing death, Moore's supernatural take on the human soul is unique.
It does drop more F-bombs then I was prepared for; although I'm not sure why since he tends to curse quite often in the other books I've read and I would do the same if I ever found myself in that position.
This book is full of humor and wit, it is also more melancholy as well.

Too many dull spots (0 more)

I honestly went back and forth on how to properly rate this book. It was a quick read, but I almost gave up in a couple spots. The beginning was frustrating, with the MC encountering and complaining about problems she obviously put herself in. Then the twists started coming, and every time I thought I had it figured out, another twist hit, down to the literal last page. Did I absolutely love it? Not really. It was fine. Wild towards the end even. I'd probably give the beginning 2/5 stars, the middle 3/5, and the ending 4/5. And that's all I feel I can say without spoilers. 🤣

The ultimate choice

A killer is loose, a killer that makes friends, loved ones, colleagues choose between life or death. The only way out is to make the decision else you both die.

DI Helen Grace is a brilliant character, dark and delicious with lots of intricate problems. I like the jump between different timelines and how they come together at the end.

The reader is kept in the dark till quite near the end and then the pace, which us already fast, ramps up another notch. I really couldnt put it down.

I may need to read some more DI Helen Grace books.
