The hearse you came in on

I've always wanted to use the phrase 'sardonic wit' and Tim Cockey, bless his heart, has now given me a chance. This story is overflowing with sardonic wit. It's funny but it is not a lighthearted mystery. It's an excellent story written by a guy who can turn a phrase until it nearly backs over itself. Hitchcock Sewell is an undertaker who now also appears in Cockey's second book which is absolutely on my list to read soon!

I enjoyed the dhumor, the different perspective and the baltimore scenes

it was okay, not too deep or characters well developed; until the end - which was rushed and not good
