A cleverly voiced psychological thriller about an unforgettable and unsettling friendship, with blood-chilling twists, crackling wit and a thrumming pulse in its veins, from the bestselling author of The Cabin at the End of the World.

1988. Art Barbara is a painfully awkward teenager, underweight, acne-ridden and bent crooked by scoliosis. Worse, he has no extra credits to get him into college. So Art starts the Pallbearers’ Club, mourning for people with no one else to bury them, which introduces him to Mercy Brown. Mercy is into bands, local history and taking photos of the dead. Decades later, Art writes his memoir to try and make sense of it all, because nothing about Mercy is simple. Their friendship twists and coils, captured in Polaroid snapshots and sweaty gigs and inexplicable flashes of the parasite lurking in a folded jacket at night. Because Art is writing, but Mercy is reading. And she thinks Art’s novel – this isn’t a memoir – needs some work, and she’s more than happy to set the record straight. What if Art didn’t get everything right? Come on, Art, you can’t tell just one side of the story …

'The Pallbearers Club is Tremblay at his most audacious best. It's such a sneaky mindblower! It'll burrow deep inside you, and by the end, you'll be wondering if the room you're sitting in, the people you're talking with, or even your own memory, are real.'
Sarah Langan, author of Good Neighbors

'Books can have teeth. A whole mouthful of them. The Pallbearers Club has a whole lifetime of them.'
Stephen Graham Jones, New York Times bestselling author of My Heart is a Chainsaw

'The most beautiful and heartbreaking funeral I've been to in a long time, ''The Pallbearers Club'' is melancholy, funny, and very cruel, but you won't regret carrying this coffin.'
Grady Hendrix, New York Times bestselling author of The Final Girls Support Group
