Totally Deceased New by Sue H. Cunningham (author) and Scholastic (illustrator)

A one-of-a-kind, hilarious, high-stakes murder mystery!“Funny, heartfelt and I loved the mystery” – Rosie Talbot, author of Sixteen Souls“How many weeks before the ghost of your unspeakably generous organ donor ascends the glitter escalator to heaven, Jess? Six weeks? Eight? Or maybe never unless you bloody well help her find out why she was murdered…”

Seventeen-year-old Jess wakes from an emergency heart transplant to discover she’s being haunted by the disgruntled ghost of her donor – teenage socialite, Tilly. And she won’t leave Jess in peace until they unravel the mystery surrounding her death.

Their investigations take them deep into Tilly’s luxurious heiress life – from private schools to Swiss banks and high-end hotels.

But the clues lead somewhere darker than either of the girls could have imagined. And if Jess can’t solve the murder in time, her own life may be at risk…

A hilarious, heart-racing murder mystery like no other.

Perfect for fans of Holly Jackson, Benjamin Dean and Netflix’s Inventing Anna.
An ambitious, tightly-plotted, laugh-out-loud read that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Perfect for TikTok and Bookstagram, with shades of Only Murders in the Building and the film Ghost.

Made me laugh and cry

Bought as a gift for my teenage god daughters but couldn't resist having a sneaky read first. Delightful, charming and very funny.
