In the business of unfinished business... Tristan Everett was finally getting used to the strangeness that was his life. Being able to see the dead and helping them solve their unfinished business and cross into the light wasn't so bad after all, especially when he was accompanied by his best friend, dead drag queen Dusty Le Frey. His boyfriend, sexy Scotland Yard detective Danny Hayes, now knew the truth about Tristan's "gift," and they were about to move in together officially. Life was good. That is until Death-honest to god, Death (aka The Grim Reaper)-pitches up in Tristan's kitchen with an unusual request: stop Dusty's ghostly hookup Bruce from crossing into the light, which may result in dire consequences. i.e. an accidental apocalypse. Determined to do the exact opposite, and avoid potentially the end of the world, Tristan and Danny assemble their own ragtag gang of one prickly witch, one snarky psychic private investigator, one living drag queen with an affinity for feathers, and one dead one with an affinity for a deceased rugby player in tiny shorts. Together they must solve a forty-year old cold case, while juggling a dose of the flu, a broken leg, a supernatural storm, and an immortal death deity with the looks and temperament of a sexy but grouchy CEO.

In the business of unfinished business... For one brief shining moment, the utter insanity that is Tristan Everett's world makes sense. He's marrying the man he loves, has a dead drag queen for a bestie and is surrounded by an amazing found family. Okay, so his life isn't exactly what you'd call normal. By day, he's a quiet, mild-mannered forensic pathologist, but the rest of the time, he guides lost souls into the light. He's also averted an apocalypse, stopped Chaos from coming through a magic door, and drunk tequila with Death. It's all a bit bonkers, but it's his life… and he loves it. He's flying high but, like Icarus, it's only a matter of time before he's brought crashing down to earth with singed wings. The strange reality of his life intrudes once again when his friend, Madame Vivienne, is murdered, and it's clear from the beginning that this is no ordinary killing. Someone is using dark magic. Viv's soul has been bound, leaving her trapped and unable to communicate. Tristan, Danny, and their friends must uncover the truth and find the killer. But the deeper they delve into the old bookshop in Whitechapel, which has been in the Crawshanks family for generations, the darker and the more dangerous the secrets that begin to unravel. And what they discover may just change their lives forever… **Includes Bonus Chapter told from Harrison's POV** **100% Human written & narrated - NO AI was used in the creation of this book or audio.
