Here Goes Nothing

''A morbidly two-fisted tour de force '' Sunday TimesA firecracker of a novel by the Booker-shortlisted author of A Fraction of the Whole - a scathingly funny and affecting tale of life, death, love and the questionable existence of God. Angus Mooney is not happy - he''s been murdered, cut off in the prime of his life. He feels humiliated - he''s never even believed in an afterlife. (How wrong he''d been). He''s confused - death has provided more questions than answers. And he desperately misses his audacious and fiery wife, Gracie, who''s expecting their first child. The only upside is that Angus has found a way to see what his murderer is up to, and how Gracie is faring. The downside: Gracie and his murderer are getting uncomfortably close, and a worldwide pandemic means the afterlife is about to get very crowded . . .''What a joy to surrender oneself to a writer of such prodigious talent'' Peter Carey
