It’s the day of his father’s funeral and Daniel wants everything to go according to plan, but his brother is only interested in chatting up a pretty girl at the service, his cousin’s straight-laced boyfriend is convinced that someone is alive in the coffin, and a rogue bottle of hallucinogenic pills keeps popping up. If that isn’t enough, a mystery visitor from his father’s past threatens to expose the patriarch’s secret unless he is paid a princely sum. Death at a Funeral is the riotous, shocking tale of one man’s struggle to maintain his dignity while swimming in a sea of calamity.
