Meg's soul is up for grabs as Heaven and Hell try every sneaky trick imaginable to claim it. Helping a lonely old man complete tasks on his wish list is her only chance. But even if she takes that chance, will she really have enough points to face up to St Peter?
An unforgettable and gritty tale of life, death and an unexpected hereafter by the bestselling author of Artemis Fowl.
'Brilliant. This book had me (literally) rolling on the floor with mirth. The characters Meg and Lowrie share a spirit, no pun intended, that people can''t help but love. The story itself was pure genius. An ultimate tale of finding the good in others and, more importantly, yourself. '

'Was recommended by the librarian at the High School I work in and it was excellent and hard to put down. Others have read it after my recommendation and they say its wonderful too. Agree with first reviewer that others should know about this book. Hate to say it but far better than the Artemis Fowl series and totally different. A compelling read.'

This is really brilliant book. It's funny, thought-provoking, and - most importantly - a brilliant read. It's only slightly similar to Artemis Fowl (teenager as a main character and some sort of magic involved), but is quite a bit deeper. I'm SO GLAD I read this!
