When a toxic hospital consultant dies of a heart attack, fellow doctor Eitan Rose smells foul play. Nobody else does though, including some quite crucial players like the police and the coroner. But Eitan just won't let it drop, and his friends and colleagues become increasingly concerned about his mental health as his chaotic investigation and equally chaotic life spiral out of control. Is he making a career-ending mistake, or could there genuinely be a killer stalking the wards? A deathly funny mix of mystery, murder and medicine, A PARTICULARLY NASTY CASE is the brilliantly original debut novel from Adam Kay, BAFTA-winning author of multi-million global bestseller THIS IS GOING TO HURT. PRAISE FOR A PARTICULARLY NASTY CASE 'Brilliant. It will make you laugh and weep' Reverend Richard Coles 'Amazing. I was gripped right up to the last minute' Joanna Lumley 'A work of fiendishly plotted genius' Lucy Foley 'Wild and funny and filthy and hilarious' Russell T Davies 'Viciously funny - I'm still laughing' Ian Rankin 'Very funny, very rude and very moving' Kate Mosse
