The Mystery of Mercy Close - Marian Keyes

I employ this thing called The Shovel List. A shovel...? No. A Shovel List. It's more of a conceptual thing. It's a list of all the people and things I hate so much that I want to hit them in the face with a shovel. Helen Walsh doesn't believe in fear - it's just a thing invented by men to get all the money and good jobs - and yet she's sinking. Her work as a Private Investigator has dried up her flat has been repossessed and now some old demons have resurfaced. Not least in the form of her charming but dodgy ex-boyfriend Jay Parker who shows up with a missing persons case - the target: Wayne Diffney the 'Wacky One' from boyband Laddz.. Playing by her own rules Helen is drawn into a dark and glamorous world where her worst enemy is her own head and where increasingly the only person she feels connected to is Wayne a man she's never even met. Utterly compelling moving and very very funny The Mystery of Mercy Close is unlike any novel you've ever read and Helen Walsh - courageous vulnerable and wasp-tongued - is the perfect heroine for our times.
