Some roles you cannot walk away from.

Rosie Mwangi-Clarke is a failed actress turned professional mourner, warm, funny, genuinely moved by strangers' grief, navigating London's extraordinary multicultural funeral landscape from a terraced house in Ponders End.

Gabriel Marsh is a forensic accountant from Newcastle who has spent fifteen years dismantling the financial lives of targets selected by foreign governments. They keep appearing at the same funerals. She is the first person in fifteen years to make him feel something he does not have a name for.

When she discovers what he is, the question is not whether she can forgive him. It is whether he can get out, and what it will cost both of them if he tries.
