Reviews

[Netanella · Rating 4 out of 5]

Off beat and funny - I really enjoyed this book, a hard one to categorize. It's not romance, detective, horror, or comedy, but it has elements of all these. Our hero, Jack Severn, begins the story at a bus station with a borrowed suitcase, a detached arm, and a missing heart, having crawled out of his own grave. Somehow he stumbles into The Purple Dee, a new nightclub just opening up after his own murder there a year ago. From there, events progress quickly - the plot interesting, the characters compelling. I will very much keep my eye out for more by this author.
