Publisher's summary

A laugh-out-loud communist-punching adventure!

Sam Rockwell came home from the Second World War to work as a fledgling private investigator specializing in helping "Returns": recently deceased ghosts who've come back with unfinished business. Short on experience and long on the imitated swagger of the detectives found in his dog-eared collection of pulp fiction P.I. mysteries, the quick-witted Sam waits for his big break - and his chance to win the heart of Amelia, his Girl Friday.

But when his no-nonsense father is murdered and becomes a Return himself, everything changes. Sam sets out to find his father's killer, only to find himself caught up in a madcap game of Cold War intrigue.

Humorous and hard-boiled, 'til Death is a witty, feel-good throwback to the golden age of Hollywood noir.

Loads of fun

If you enjoy zany old-time radio detective stories, movies from the 1950's, smiling, chocolate milk, and punching communists, then this is the audiobook for you. I loved this and highly recommend it to everyone from tweens to the elderly. Can't wait for the next one.

Fallible, loveable Cold War supernatural P.I.

So entertaining! Wonderfully performed! Not only a fun listen, but many existential and even relationship issues had me pondering life in general. I love the supernatural, post-war America, and noir-detective genre; this is a cool blending of both. I really look forward to seeing these characters continue to deal with "returns" and soon.

Delightfully charming

Admittedly on the shorter side, but a very enjoyable look at love and life wrapped up in a fun detective plot.

Very much enjoyed this book

I really enjoyed this book I’m a fan of science fiction and noirs and this was a nice mix of both while managing to be thrilling and funny. I am a huge fan of galaxy’s edge by Anspach and Cole and wanted to check out some of their other works. This is not galaxy’s edge by any means but It was a nice break from that world. Anspach definitely hooked me with this book and I am looking forward to starting the next one.

Not my normal genre, but worth it.

I got this book because of the author. Not my normal cup of tea but Jason Anspach doesn’t disappoint in the fun and atmospheric ghost ride. Very entertaining and fun.
Five stars in all categories. Highly recommend.
