"description": "Death. It\u2019s a dirty business.\n\nWhen Diya Burman\u2019s best friend Angie dies, it feels like her own life is falling apart. Wanting a fresh start, she joins Slough & Sons - a family firm that cleans up after the recently deceased.\n\nOld love letters. Porcelain dolls. Broken trinkets.\nClearing away the remnants of other people\u2019s lives, Diya begins to see things. Horrible things. Things that get harder and harder to write off as merely her grieving imagination. All is not as it seems with the Slough family. Why won\u2019t they speak about their own recent loss? And who is the strange man who keeps turning up at their jobs?\n\nIf Diya\u2019s not careful, she might just end up getting buried under the family tree\u2026",
