Life and Deaths of Billy Gumboots

When Billy Gumboots returns to the small town he's done everything to avoid, the local funeral director goes out of his way to help him. But why? What's in it for him?
Billy also encounters other bizarre characters - including a handyman who sprouts Latin, a red-headed Feng Shu expert who explains why Billy has his yin and yang all wrong, and an old man who looks like him but denies paternity.
He soon finds himself tangled up in a mess he can't easily escape. Can Dave, the undertaker, help him this time?

More importantly: Can Billy keep his secrets buried in a town where everyone knows everything - except what's really going on?

Full of humour that makes you cringe and laugh simultaneously, The Life and Deaths of Billy Gumboots is a darkly comedic novel.
You don't need to have read the earlier books in the series to enjoy this one. This one starts before Book 1 begins and ends after Book 7 finishes.
