Synopsis

Sometimes it takes a funeral to realize what matters.

Mavis and Lumpy are getting married, but they can't agree on anything, even the size of their wedding cake. When Lumpy befriends the local Indian restaurant, their relationship spirals out of control.

Mavis's sister arrives to "sort things". She wins over Lumpy with budget ideas that would have Scrooge tap dancing. Mavis wants to tap dance on her sister's head and is on the verge of throwing it all away when her mother dies.

With a funeral befitting a sitcom, sibling rivalry on par with a Shakespearean tragedy, and a dying mother's impossible wish, Mavis and Lumpy's relationship crumbles like a burnt chapatti.

Will the funeral be the final straw?

Four Takeaways And A Funeral is the third book in the Bellydancing and Beyond series, although each book can be read as a standalone. For fans of Abbey Jimenez, Maddie Please, and Judy Leigh, Three Takeaways And A Funeral is a bittersweet comedy set in a small Scottish town.

À propos de l?auteur

Back in the days before TV remotes and when the Bay City Rollers were Scotland's finest export, Kerrie Noor left Australia for a working holiday-and never looked back.Now based in Scotland, Kerrie has been a community radio regular, belly dance teacher, stand-up comic, and Edinburgh Festival performer. Her first novel, Sheryl's Last Stand, was inspired by her experience teaching belly dancing and launched the Bellydancing and Beyond series-bittersweet comedies featuring women over forty, unexpected passions, and more than one shimmy gone wrong.Kerrie still dances, often mixing storytelling with sequins and the odd joke, and has inflicted her quirky style of humor on many, including several rest homes, charity events, and pretty much anyone who will sit still long enough to listen.She's been shortlisted for the Asham Short Story Award and had two short plays performed on the radio. When she's not writing, she's probably plotting a fictional fiasco involving glitter, grumpy relatives, and the enduring power of friendship.
