About this audiobook
Beatrice Wainwright and Constance Pemberton were once the toast of Harrogate society. Now they're just two bitter old women terrorizing delivery boys from their decaying manor.
When they decide to go out on their own terms with a bottle of lethal Victorian gin, death proves to be just the beginning.
Armed with an unlimited expense account from Hell and official haunting licenses, they become the most magnificently terrible ghosts Yorkshire has ever seen.
But their creative bureaucratic chaos, corrupting council paperwork, befriending confused vampires, and refusing Lucifer himself, puts them in a category neither Heaven nor Hell can file properly.
A darkly hilarious tale of friendship, gin-fueled rebellion, spite, and redemption. What happens when two Yorkshire women decide that if they're going to be damned, they're doing it their way, with proper standards, unlimited gin, and an eternal disco featuring Freddy, and all the beautiful souls who deserved better.
