Death and Other Occupational Hazards - Veronika Dapunt - Bog

An original and darkly comedic murder mystery about a female personified Death whose sabbatical in modern-day London gets rudely interrupted by an unplanned murderer on the loose. Perfect for fans of Good Omens, The Good Place and Sophie Kinsella.-----Her job is to die for. Literally.Most people think that when they meet Death, it'll be a skeleton in a black potato sack. Maybe with a scythe. Truth is, she's just a woman doing a job, and she's very good at it.But when Death takes a much-needed break to live on earth, things start to go terribly wrong.Someone's killing people not on her list (well, not yet anyway) and it's down to her to find the culprit before it's too late. To make matters worse, her sanctimonious sister Life - whom Death hasn't gotten along with in millennia - won't stop blaming her. . . and there's the slight problem of the charming (sexy) parasitologist she's suspicious of.But she'll be fine, right?After all, who better to investigate a murder than Death herself?-----Quirky, fun and witty, this is Death like you've never seen her before. A lover of bright colours, a fierce protector of nature and a human falling in love for the first time. Death's sharp voice will linger in your mind long after you've read.
