'Dead Sexy is erotica at its most thrilling. Nicola, writer of the ‘Anabelle Says’ column for a women’s magazine, is cheating on her boyfriend Fox with Johnny B. Wright, a kinky-sex-loving architect who likes to ‘christen’ his newly constructed buildings. Things become complicated. Johnny is found dead, stark naked and handcuffed, with one of Nicola’s favourite scarves tied around his neck. Investigating Detective Sergeant Damien Mann has a fetish for ‘watching’ and just happens to know the deceased'

4 9 y separately published work icon Miles Walker, You're Dead Linda Jaivin , ( trans. Sonia Pendola with title Meglio morto ) Parma : Ugo Guanda , 2001 Z514798 1999 single work novel humour

'"My name is Miles Walker. Remember it. I’m keen on immortality. I’ve got to be. I’m twenty-three years old. I’m the best painter of my generation. And I’ve got four hours to live."

'On the eve of the millennium, Miles Walker has problems. His flatmate Thurston, a moody medievalist, thinks it would be a good career move for Miles to die young. Miles' best friend, the pre-conceptual artist ZakDot, agrees – and the chainsaw-wielding Maddie seems only too happy to help. Then along comes Destiny, the enigmatically beautiful politician who hates art but likes Miles. Now the others really want to kill him. By the time bare buttocks are squeaking over the blackheart sassafras of the prime ministerial dining table, it looks like Miles' fate is sealed.'
