From Chuck Tingle, USA Today bestselling author of Bury Your Gays, comes Fabulous Bodies, a supernatural joyride where Drive meets Beetlejuice.

“[Narrator Mara] Wilson creates the perfect flat affect for Poppy, keeping her voice so dry that it snaps. Whether Poppy is scrolling social media sites, lying to morgue workers, or dealing with a corpse, Wilson’s delivery is cool, calm, and collected." Kirkus (Earphones Award Winner)

Even as Poppy's reality devolves into body horror, Wilson's detachment keeps listeners hooked on every word.

Poppy Stringer was born to be a star.

An aspiring fashion influencer by day, Poppy moonlights as a grave robber to make ends meet, wheeling and dealing dead bodies across Palm Springs.

When her hero, the flamboyant, piano-slamming rockstar Eddie Michaels, unexpectedly dies, Poppy gets a call to retrieve his body from the medical examiner’s office for a lucrative sum. It could be the last job she’ll ever need—if everything goes to plan. But the night’s delivery quickly veers off course when Eddie wakes up.

Now Poppy must fight for her life if she hopes to survive this blood-soaked joyride of carnage and extravagant entertainment.

“Mara Wilson's sober narration style and consistent pacing create an amusing juxtaposition with the unlucky events that unfold.” —Kirkus on Lucky Day

Critic Reviews

"Another banger from the king of camp horror! Fabulous Bodies is Chuck Tingle flexing his prodigious powers of entertainment, and it's easily his best book yet. Tightly paced, deliciously frightening, and emotionally sweeping, this one's a masterly ride across terror and wonder. I can't wait for wherever Chuck Tingle takes me next."
—Olivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of Girl Dinner

“A wild, brutal romp through Hollywood's desert playground. Turning the pages felt nearly compulsive, and I'll follow Poppy Stringer wherever the dark night takes her. Gory, outrageous, and full of showmanship, this is one spectacle you don't want to miss.”
—CJ Leede, USA Today bestselling author of Maeve Fly and Headlights

The New York Times on Bury Your Gays

“A big-hearted, chilling ride.”
Vulture on Camp Damascus

“Tingle wows with an absurdist existential horror novel that is as funny as it is unexpectedly devastating, complex, and challenging.”
—Publishers Weekly on Lucky Day

“Brilliantly bloody, wildly fun, and extremely scary.”
—Rachel Harrison, on Bury Your Gays

"Tingle proves he's as good at fear as he is at love.”
―T. Kingfisher on Camp Damascus

“A joyous horror story, inventively told, and with a greater balance of heart, humor, and genuine scares than anything else written this year."
