À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Retired bank manager George Pearmain is, apparently, dead. According to the behaviour of everyone around him, it would seem that he is no more. Not only that, it but his mother has passed away - and on the eve of her ninety-ninth year, poor dear. Not only that, it could be that they were both murdered.

He feels fine otherwise.

As George's family gather for the birthday-celebration-that-never-was, he hovers around the house, watching and listening, entirely unseen. As a result, he makes all sorts of discoveries about himself, his wife Esmeralda and his supposedly happy family . . .

Screamingly funny and strange, R.I.P. asks the question: what if you could bear witness to your own demise?
