About this listen

Welcome, welcome, it is I, Octavius Evander, Lead Detective and Owner of The Undead Detective Agency, here to say...we’re back!

Before dropping some hints about what is to come in this amazing and very sparkly first volume, those who have no clue who I am...I’d suggest you go back and listen to the previous series that is graciously named after my Agency, otherwise... Well, frankly, you will be very confused. If confused is your way of life...carry on, I shall not judge!

Now, the story picks up months after the end of The Undead Detective Agency, and my crew is dealing with the aftermath of...well, you know what. So, of course, I, the loving, amazing boss that I am, decided that it was time for a vacation—a fun duck-related vacation. And after hinting at resorting to possible friendnapping, I got my way!

But can I, Octavius, have a single day off without someone dying?! No, apparently, I cannot! So, cue multiple murders, long-time grudges, a baffling level of incompetence, and me facing down the ultimate enemy in a battle of wits...and glitter. What more is there to say besides...let the chaos begin...again!

AUTHOR NOTE: The Undead Detective Files is an MM paranormal romance spin-off series and a continuation of The Undead Detective Agency. The books are meant to be listened to in order and after The Undead Detective Agency series. For content warning, please see author note inside or website.

Vacation Time.

Octavius takes Turney, Scarlett, Min-Ji and Theo on a vacation at a duck themed park, but ends up with dead people popping up. Someone is trying to kill Octavius. Of course the gang figures it out and captures the killer.

I really loved this book, and the audio made it even better!

Edge of My Seat🥰🤣

They're back! I've missed them so much 💓. Hearing some of the back stories are great. Introducing a bigger picture with the Reapers is going to be interesting and hopefully how shall we say retribution balancing for all the people they just leave in the bad situation and eventually die instead of helping. The cute factor is off the charts 😸. The laughs are continuous. Octavious is off the hook 🥰💖. The gang is working well together and becoming a real family. #glitter&plushies. Hugs and Kisses Octavious, Turny, Scarlett and the rest of the gang til next time 💋💖❤️‍🔥🧛🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️

Adorable Antics!

I am so happy to be back with Octavius and the Gang. Not so sure how happy they are with trail of bodies that has joined them. I enjoyed this real murder mystery vacation with some of my favorite quirky friends. The mystery is exciting and a bit dangerous while still having all the odd and fun moments with everyone. There is gore and glitter galore! Octavius is just too adorable with all his antics! And I have to mention how much I love Alex and Theo. Lance West brought out all the personalities and help build the world vividly! He is going to rock this series!

Hilarious and Charming!

A wonderful follow-up to the Undead Detective Agency books. I was extremely excited about this book since I loved the first three and I wasn’t disappointed. All of the characters are back (though a couple just got cameos) with amusing new antics and a new mystery. This book is a great continuation and even possibly an improvement on the quality of an already fun series.
