Thought You Were Dead
by Nick Craine
Meet the Perfect Man...no, no, he’s not the hero of Thought You Were Dead. That would be Chellis Beith, literary researcher, slacker, reluctant detective, and a man bedeviled by every woman in his life. This is the most unconventional of murder mysteries, turning the genre completely on its head, by bludgeoning flat language and Puritanical sensibilities with evident glee.
