An instant USA Today bestseller - A CALIBA Golden Poppy Award finalist

The instant USA Today bestseller from Chuck Tingle, Fabulous Bodies is a new 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.

--Stephen Graham Jones, New York Times bestselling author of The Buffalo Hunter Hunter

"Another banger from the king of camp horror! Fabulous Bodies is Chuck Tingle flexing his prodigious powers of entertainment, and it's easily his best book yet. Tightly paced, deliciously frightening, and emotionally sweeping, this one's a masterly ride across terror and wonder. I can't wait for wherever Chuck Tingle takes me next."
--Olivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of Girl Dinner

"A wild, brutal romp through Hollywood's desert playground. Turning the pages felt nearly compulsive, and I'll follow Poppy Stringer wherever the dark night takes her. Gory, outrageous, and full of showmanship, this is one spectacle you don't want to miss."
