Deborah's fourth novel is a modern reworking of the film Truly, Madly, Deeply.

Steve is unlucky in love - he's shy, he's never had a long-term girlfriend, and he's unable to bring himself to tell Dina, the girl he works with, that he loves her. And then, on the eve of his thirtieth birthday, he throws a party, drinks too much, falls in the Thames in a stupor on his way home - and dies.
But not quite. Steve comes round in the morning to find he's a ghost, unable to move on until he understands what relationships are about and what love means. He watches Dina as her life continues, and talks to her about what he's feeling. And, little by little, Dina begins to hear his voiceâ¦
But then Dina meets Archie and is swept off her feet. Steve knows Archie isn't the gentleman Dina thinks he is, but can he persuade her she's making a mistakeA And will Steve find the emotional fulfilment he needs to get to heavenb

A wonderfully warm and imaginative novel full of love, life ... and ghosts.
