Paul isn't dead. He just meditated so much that he ascended to a new plane of consciousness. Isn't that what spiritual retreats are for? Linda's job just got harder. Not only does she need to figure out how this pain in the arse died, she also has to convince him that he's actually dead. Which, she'd like to point out, he totally is. Dead in Paradise is the seventh book in the popular Australian fantasy/murder mystery series, Deadish.
