And I was right !! ^^
I was, from the start, harpooned by history and I have not been able to detach the end.
From the first page, we know Drek, an ectoplasm ... Uh, sorry ... A ghost.
Admittedly, it takes pretty good thing.
And now he tells us how he became a ghost and my faith, it's really bad luck for him.
The death is already not funny but die like him, pfff !! Not easy!
Before his death, he was investigating a serial killer who kills his victims by tearing bare hands (yes, yes! Barehanded) the hearts of his victims. And Drek (nicknamed Bones by his friends) as medico legal expert, had the difficult task of finding answers in the meager clues collected from crime scenes.
But his death will not prevent him from continuing to investigate these mysterious crimes, aided by his best friend and cop in addition, Tony.
How and with what?
I will say no more, even under torture, otherwise seriously impair the story which would be a shame given the quality time I spent reading.
As you have undoubtedly understood (at least I hope ^^) the title refers to the death of our friend who's just killed the day of Valentine's Day! Really bad luck, so he would celebrate with the delicious Betty.
But hey, we do not always choose his time to leave for the afterlife.
I could say some things about this book but then again, I may spoiler and yet my fingers itch, you have no idea how !!
In the story, there was just enough of everything: action, humor, intrigue, violence (soft), love, creatures of every hair ...
Everything is subtly measured to give us, in the end, a beautiful cocktail worthy of the best bartender.
I love Drek: his self-mockery, irony and humor he handles brilliantly. And Tony is not far behind. These are two best friends who are even in death.
A great surprise that I did not expect and I was literally blown away.
I have only one desire: to know more ... ... Oh yes!
And icing on the cake for Rebecca Kean amateur (and I know you are many) ....
There will be revelations about her in history .... and what revelations ... you will not believe your little peepers ^^
