Well this is excellent news

[Penguin Huddle @PenguinHuddleUK]

Her job is to die for. Literally.

Most people imagine Death as a skeleton in a black robe, holding a scythe. In reality, she’s quite the opposite.

When Death takes a holiday, chaos ensues. Someone is killing people prematurely and she must find the culprit quickly.

Here’s a wild-sounding murder mystery for 2025! #DeathAndOtherOccupationalHazards by @vmdapunt puts Death herself in the driving seat to find out who’s killing people when she takes a well earned break 😂 Sounds like a total SCREAM 😱 Thanks @TransworldBooks 🙏 Out Apr #bookpost
