About this listen

Edward is living in a world he can't afford and to which he doesn't belong. To camouflage himself, he has catered to his friends' needs – fetching drycleaning, sorting flowers for premieres. It's a noble effort, really – anything to keep his best pals Robert and Stanza happy. In return, his proximity to them might sponge the shame of his birth and violent past cleanly away.

But the chink in his armour is his painfully unrequited love for Stanza. When he realises Stanza and Robert are an item, Edward is pushed too far. His little acts of kindness take a sinister turn, giving way to the unspeakable brutality Edward fears is at his core.

Are there limits to what he will do for his friends? Are there limits to what he will do to them?

Critic Reviews

'A deft, razor-sharp debut that effortlessly bestrides crime and comedy. Jonny Sweet is annoyingly talented.' (Erin Kelly, bestselling author of He Said/She Said)

'Fresh, frightening, bittersweet and brutal. The Kellerby Code is wonderfully witty and delightfully dark.' (Chris Whitaker, bestselling author of We Begin at the End)

Beautifully written with an engaging story

I found this book to be beautifully written, with a unique style. The characters are rich and authentic and the story is interesting and engaging. I also think the narrator nailed it. I came across it via recommendation by Richard Osman and agree that it is well worth a listen.
