The Coffin Confessor by Bill Edgar Paperback 2021 GD

THAT'S WHEN I STOOD UP, TOLD THE BEST MATE TO SIT DOWN, SHUT UP OR F**K OFF. THAT THE MAN IN THE COFFIN HAD A FEW THINGS TO SAY.'

Imagine you are dying with a secret. Something you've never had the courage to tell your friends and family. Or a last wish a task you need carried out before you can rest in peace. Now imagine there's a man who can take care of all that at your funeral whose loyalty is only to the dead.

Bill Edgar is the Coffin Confessor a one-of-a-kind professional, a man on a mission to make good on these last requests. And this is the extraordinary story of how he became that man.

Bill has been many things in this life: homeless street-kid, car thief, son of a notorious gangster, maximum-security prisoner, professional punching bag, inventor, private investigator, family man, and a survivor of horrific childhood abuse.

Now his life's work is to make sure his clients' voices are heard: the woman who endured an abusive marriage for decades before finding freedom. The outlaw biker who is afraid of nothing...except telling the world he is in love with another man. The dad who needs to track down his estranged daughter so he can find a way to say he's sorry, with one final gift.

Confronting and confounding, heartwarming and heartbreaking, The Coffin Confessor is a story of survival and redemption, of a life spent on the fringes of society, on both sides of the law - and what that teaches you about living your best life... and death.
