    I am very grateful. When I first started practicing I wished I had a handbook that answered basic questions, encouraged me on how to go about those first classes, guided me on whether to travel to Mysore or not. Recently someone who has been attracted to this style of yoga asked me if I could provide such a guide because he said: "it all felt very intimidating from the perspective of a beginner". I completely related. That is how this book was born.

    Oh, and someone’s going to murder her boss. Nobody at work liked Bob Thomas, but who hated him enough to finally do him in? When Izzy Palmer finds her much loathed boss stabbed to death in his office, she’s convinced she’s the only one who can solve the case. Izzy is a crime fiction devotee, a life-long fan of whodunits and she’s determined to find the killer. Okay, the police have zero interest in her help, her best friend is acting super suspicious and she might sort of, possibly be falling for one of the suspects, but she won’t let any of that get in her way. She's almost certainly the detective that South London has been crying out for. Will a detailed knowledge of every golden-age mystery plot be enough to work out who killed Bob or could Izzy end up as the next victim? A Corpse Called Bob combines all the intrigue of a classic Agatha Christie novel with the wit and warmth of Sophie Kinsella. Early readers have described the book as, “a hilarious mix of classic detective story and modern murder mystery which keeps you gripped to the very end.”
