My So-Called Afterlife

Psychics, psychos and sidekicks . . . who says death
has to be dull?

‘Aaargh!’ Stumbling backwards, the man’s face flooded with
horrified embarrassment. ‘How long have you been there?’
My mind fizzed furiously. He could see me. He could actually
see me! I could have hugged him! Well, I couldn’t, but you
know what I mean.

Fifteen-year-old Lucy has been stuck in the men’s loos since
she was murdered there six months ago and Jeremy is the
first person who’s been able to see or hear her. Just her luck
that he’s a seriously uncool geography-teacher type – but at
least he’s determined to help.
Once he’s found a way for her to leave the loos, she’s soon
meeting other ghosts, including the gorgeous Ryan. However,
when Jeremy insists that she helps him track down her killer,
she has to confront her greatest fear . . .

A wonderful and thought-provoking debut novel, full of insight,
humour, compassion and love.

‘. . . drives along with great gusto, there’s plenty of fun to
balance the dark side of murder and loss . . . refreshingly different.’
The Bookseller

'Lucy is full of attitude and hilarious one-liners . . . but I really felt for her, too. She died in terrible circumstances, and she has a long way to go before she can reach any kind of peace . . . A breezy, funny, feel-good take on one girl's afterlife – recommended!'
Chicklish

'This book has everything a great story needs – it is well written, it has realistic and memorable characters, sparkling dialogue, incredible humour and moments of nail-biting tension.'
Bookzone for boys
