​DIAMOND GEEZERS

A gem of a heroine. A plan with a fatal flaw. A comic thriller to die for.

​
Modesty de Mise is dead set on saving the local cemetery from developers. It’s right next to where she lives, above her parents’ business – a funeral parlour! And, as if that isn’t bad enough, things start to look grave when teen-mobster Harley `halitosis’ Spinks turns up to arrange some gangster funerals after a failed diamond robbery.

​And she’s also in cahoots with the developers! When hunky Oz Appleby turns up again after four years away, Modesty thinks she’s found an ally at last – but why would anyone want to date an undertaker’s daughter?
​Modesty’s got to act fast, or her plans to beat the gangsters will go six feet under. But if her parents discover any of this, she’ll be dead meat…
