From Chuck Tingle, USA Today bestselling author of Bury Your Gays, comes Fabulous Bodies, a supernatural joyride where Drive meets Beetlejuice.
Poppy Stringer was born to be a star.
An aspiring fashion influencer by day, Poppy moonlights as a grave robber to make ends meet, wheeling and dealing dead bodies across Palm Springs.
When her hero, the flamboyant, piano-slamming rockstar Eddie Michaels, unexpectedly dies, Poppy gets a call to retrieve his body from the medical examiner’s office for a lucrative sum. It could be the last job she’ll ever need—if everything goes to plan. But the night’s delivery quickly veers off course when Eddie wakes up.
Now Poppy must fight for her life if she hopes to survive this blood-soaked joyride of carnage and extravagant entertainment.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Tingle (Lucky Day) turns both the music and the blood spatter up to 11 in this extremely gory horror outing that nevertheless puts his trademark sense of humor on full display. Gorgeous fashion influencer Poppy Stringer works hard, turning on the charm for the camera and her 200,000 followers. She works even harder at her night job: stealing bodies from funeral homes, for purposes she doesn't want to know too much about and sums of money that fund her glamorous lifestyle. It's all worth it to provide the good life for her five-year-old daughter, Marlo. When Poppy's favorite musician, the flamboyant piano rocker Eddie Michaels, is killed by a drunk driver, Poppy's not expecting the phone call telling her to go collect his body from the morgue. She's doubly shocked when Eddie rises from the dead, claims to have made a deal with the devil, and ropes Poppy into acting as his driver as he undertakes mysterious errands to perform the necessary rituals to stay alive. This plot quickly gives rise to a gleefully bloody spree through Palm Springs. Tingle unwaveringly commits to the bit, masterfully juxtaposing intense horror, witty observation, and genuine emotion. Though not for the faint of heart, this is unforgettable.
