Life After Death for Beginners - Paperback

Michael Gerber's satirical mystery Life After Death for Beginners stars Tom Larkin, an impossibly famous rock icon who dies tragically at the hands of a deranged fan-or so the world believes. In reality, Tom narrowly escapes with his life. As the gravely injured Tom recuperates in a secret hospital for the super-rich, his loving but imperious wife Katrinka becomes convinced that it's safer for everyone if the rockstar stays dead. Reluctantly, Tom agrees to live out his days in obscurity... until an old enemy reveals that his life is still in danger. Stripped of his former fame and access, Tom has to figure out who tried to kill him without publicly revealing his survival. His search leads him back to his old life, to the manager who made him a star; to the other three members of The Ravins, each dealing with his legacy in their own way; to his estranged daughter and the son who thinks he's dead and of course, to Katrinka, the eccentric, devoted, public face of the Larkin myth.
