Summary
Do we really live on in some conscious form after we die, and is that form capable of communicating with the world of the living?
“Aye, right…” was journalist Jack Parlabane’s stance on the matter. But this was before he found himself in the compromising position of being not only dead himself but dead with an exclusive still to file. One thing he knows for certain: death is not the end - it’s the ultimate undercover assignment.

Yet another excellent story with heaps of sarcasm
This author is my absolute favourite. An unusual approach to a crime novel, sharp wit, keeping me riveted every minute by the superb narrator

Unsinkable Rubber ducks
Good book, interesting aspect of the psychics, cleverly written, prefer a bit more humour though.

JUST BUY IT!!!
I considered the other reviews about this book...and decided to ignore them. Angus King is a great performer and to write about terrible 'accents' just means you missed out on the great humour of the storyline. If you like Chris Brookmyre's work...you'll love this.

Great as always but ...
I first read this several years ago, when my mum was alive and interested on "woo", it was funny then. its still funny and interesting and all I'll say is that although the practices described in the story may be true for some, thats not how all mediums work and the challenge today is sorting out those more gifted from the others.

Classic Brookmyre
Jack at his best, quick witted cynical self. An interesting subject matter with some great explanations and great carryover of old characters (got to love spammy)

Full of clever twists
Worth persevering with this clever, twisting tale. I had to force myself to to carry on for the first few chapters not sure where the plot was going. By the end I was hooked! The author certainly likes to tease his readers.

Fabulous plot, beautifully narrated
I read this first in paper form, and have enjoyed it now again, narrated by the excellent Angus King. It is one of my favourite Brookmyre stories. A real treat.

good with some tedium
really clever story but some of the narrative in support of the believers is a bit long and unimaginative. Normally rewarded with a laugh bit often leaving you debating continuing listening
