Why We Die

If you haven't read Zoe Boehm yet, welcome to your next fiction addiction' - Val McDermid, author of Past Lying
Herron is a stylish writer with a mordant sensibility and a deadly wit. He's also a tricky plotter - New York Times Book Review
When Zoe Boehm agrees to track down the gang who robbed Sweeney's jewellery shop, she's just hoping to break even in time for tax season. She certainly doesn't expect to wind up in a coffin.
But she's about to become entangled with a strange collection of characters, starting with suicidal Tim Whitby, who's dedicating what's left of his life to protecting Katrina Blake from her late husband's sociopathic brothers, Arkle and Trent.
Unfortunately for Zoe, Arkle has a crossbow, Tim has nothing left to lose, and even Katrina has her secrets. And death, like taxes, can't be avoided forever.
