About this listen
THE MULTI-MILLION BESTSELLING AUTHOR RETURNS WITH HER THRILLING NEW NOVEL, THE MORTICIAN

THE DEAD DON'T SCARE HER. THE LIVING DO

'Sharon Bolton is the queen of ultra-tense, claustrophobic stories...' Cressida McLaughlin
'I've long been a fan of Sharon Bolton...' Rachel Abbott

Prepare the body. Don't ask questions. Protect the ones you love.

Mortician Ella Foxton has built her life around honouring the dead and guiding them to their final resting place. Her peace is shattered when Jonny Massey, a notorious gangster, arrives at her small funeral parlour demanding she provide a lavish funeral for his brother Jimmy.

As Ella prepares Jimmy's remains, she soon realises it's not just a body Massey wants buried, but a lifetime of violent secrets. Secrets that may just tie the Masseys to a double murder investigation headed by the tenacious DS Brian Rushton.

Caught between a live investigation and warring gangs, Ella must decide how far she'll go to bring the truth to light.

After all, the dead can't speak, but every body tells a story . . .
