Knowing Beth D J Tomalin

An actually uplifting story about loss, the grieving process, loneliness, and friendship; but also about Dominic the lobster, wonky hats, suspicious hippies, and alien demon dolphins. As Kevin struggles to pick up the pieces and carry on with his drab life, boring job, shallow friends, and a world devoid of colour since his kooky best friend Beth died, he discovers her unfinished bucket-list and decides to complete it in her memory. One wish stands out, "save Mya". Who is Mya and why does she need saving? As he sets out to tick off each quirky wish and attempts to find the mysterious Mya, he unwittingly digs up Beth's past, meets some of her oddball friends, and uncovers her troubled history, which makes him question everything he ever knew about her.
