Dead Sexy is an erotic thriller with a comic edge, set in the Sydney CBD, which at night is dead – and so, we soon discover, is Johnny.

Nicola writes about sex for a women’s magazine. She’s playing with fire. Her boyfriend Fox is good at putting fires out. Liz, Nicola’s editor, can’t keep a secret. Just ask Johnny. You can’t ask Johnny. He’s dead. And Detective Sergeant Damien Mann? Let’s just say he’s on the case.

Praise for Dead Sexy

'It’s a short and sweet read that is a bit like watching an episode of ‘Sex In The City’. Jaivin satirises the _Cosmo_ _Cleo_ world of magazine publishing'
Examiner
'There’s a decidedly designer feel about this ultra-slim erotic thriller. The writing is as slick as the magazine headlines it mildly satirises.'
Age
'Javin can satirise human pretensions, insecurities, and other foibles with considerable insight and verve.'
Canberra Times
