Derek Merit is a rather sad seventeen year old boy. His father died last year and he is in love with the girl across the road, she is dating his former best friend turned worst enemy. Sounds like you've read it all before, right?
Wrong.
Derek walks through a graveyard on the way home from school to avoid being beaten up by this guy and his new friends. One day he spots a glowing tombstone and a ghost appears. He tells Derek that he is him in a past life and that he can sort his life out for him.
Derek, moron that he is, listens.
Then people start dying and Derek doesn't know if he is the one killing them or if he's just going insane. It becomes clear though, that this ghost is not who he says he is.
See - zombies attack a fast food restaurant
- a seventeen year old boy have a romantic date with a middle aged police chief
- a boy eat his best friend, but even more horrifying, use the 'my dog has got no nose' joke.

"the tombstone: " A very enjoyable read, the story flows throughout nicely without chapters interupting, and the narrator is with you at times chatting to you, sometimes berating you or the characters, and some of it is especially entertaining if you live in Coventry or have met some of the people that live there. Original and fast paced style of writing with hints of Robert Rankin, and some of the dialogue and jokes are hillarious! A very strong and promising first novel, I will await the second.
