Synopsis
It all starts, as these things sometimes do, with a dead man.
He was a neighbour, not someone Abby knew well, but still, finding a body when you only came over to borrow a tin of tomatoes, that comes as a bit of a shock.
At least, it should.
And now she can't shake the feeling that if she hadn't gone into Simon's flat, if she'd had her normal Wednesday night instead, then none of what happened next would have happened.
And she would never have met Melody Black . . .
Wild and witty, searing and true, THE MIRROR WORLD OF MELODY BLACK is about the fine line that separates normal from not - and how life can spin, very swiftly, out of control.

Review
'A book of substance. The characters will stay with you'
'I was engrossed in Abby's life. I would definitely recommend this book to others'
'From the first sentence I well spellbound. Hard to put down. Imagine a cross between Bridget Jones' Diary and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'
'Finely drawn characters. Cleverly woven narrative. I hope it receives the plaudits it deserves'
'Extence really brings Abby to life in this honest, uequivocal narrative...There is something curiously cathartic about this book, as well as having the bravery, touching honesty and memorable protagonist that Extence is making his trademark'―Heat
'Author Gavin Extence's funny and dark second novel is your commute's saviour'―Stylist
'If we do a better book in our book club this year we'll have done very well. I'm a huge fan of this book... I love it'
Warm and funny and tragic and uplifting all in one. Extence should be on everyone's radar―Jasper Fforde
This is a genuinely hilarious read, but also a deeply moving story about childhood, neurology and mortality.―Daily Telegraph
The quality of [Extence's] writing is high and often hilarious―Irish Daily Mail
