For Alex Lowry, life is for the living. Even if that comes with a lot of risk.

And where some men his age might just buy a sports car, he's become a full-blown adrenaline junkie. Whether it's lawnmower racing, rock climbing, or medieval combat, he'll give it a go - whatever makes him happy!

His daughter Hannah thinks he might have lost the plot. Chances are, she's absolutely right.

So when Alex's risk taking goes too far, and painful revelations from the past come to the surface, she has to intervene, before it's too late...

Dead Happy is a darkly funny, deeply moving story about family, guilt, and finding the courage to face your demons.
