What happens to your Facebook account when you die?

Kendall Barber calls himself an obituarist ? a social media undertaker who settles accounts for the dead. If you need your loved one's Twitter account closed down or one last blog post to be made, he'll take care of it, while also making sure that identity thieves can't access forgotten personal data. It's his way of making amends for his past, a path that has seen him return to the seedy city of Port Virtue after years in exile.

What if cleaning up your accounts could get you killed?

But now Kendall's past is reaching out to drag him back into the world of identity theft, just as he gets in over his head with a beautiful new client whose dead brother may have been murdered ? if he's even dead at all. Chased by bikers, slapped around by Samoans and hassled by the police, all Kendall wants to do is close the case and impress his client without winding up just as deceased as the usual subjects of his work.

Will the obituarist have to write his own death notice?

Or can Kendall turn the tables and put this body to rest?

The Obituarist is a crime novella about death, identity and redemption. It's very serious, except for when it's not.
