Summary
A ghost story with a twistâa suspenseful and poignantly funny update of the Hamlet story.
Eleven-year-old Philip Noble has a big problem: His dad, who was killed in a car accident, appears as a bloodstained ghost at his own funeral and introduces Philip to the Dead Fathers Club. The club, whose members were all murdered, gathers outside the Castle and Falcon, the local pub that Philipâs family owns and lives above. Philipâs father tells him that Uncle Alan killed him and he must avenge his death. When Philip realizes that Uncle Alan has designs on his mom and the family pub, Philip decides that something must be done. But itâs a much bigger job than he anticipated, especially when he is caught up by the usual distractions of childhoodâa pretty girl, wayward friends, school bullies, and his own self-doubt. The Dead Fathers Club is a riveting, imaginative, and quirky update of Shakespeareâs great tragedy that will establish Matt Haig as a young writer of great talent and imagination.
