No Funeral for Nazia by Taha Kehar - #spotlight #blogtour

Today I am delighted to be shining the spotlight on No Funeral for Nazia by Taha Kehar. 

Please keep your eyes peeled as I will be reviewing this book as part of the blog tour on 14th August. I am really looking forward to reading it.

The Blurb

No Funeral for Nazia is a witty and theatrical South Asian mystery novel set over the course of one single electrifying night, exploring the unfinished business death leaves in its wake.

Nazia Sami is a celebrated author, but perhaps her greatest plot twist is yet to be produced. In her final days, she wields a pen one last time as she fills her diary with instructions for her sister and writes six letters to be delivered after her death.

There is to be no funeral for Nazia. Instead, only six invitees are invited to a party, one of whom is a mystery guest. Over the course of an extraordinary evening, secrets are revealed, pasts reconsidered, and lives are forever changed.
