However, the narrator's partner in turn murders the narrator, who is thrust into a bizarre journey through the afterlife.
Bruno, Chief of Police Series Martin Walker THE DELIGHTFUL, INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED SERIES FEATURING BRUNO, CHIEF OF POLICE.

I never really thought of The Last Policeman and its sequels as being “dystopian”, but they have been put in that category—just as they have been put in the science-fiction category, though I never thought of them that way, thing is, if you have a giant asteroid in your book, your book is sci-fi (like it or not), and if you have a slowly disintegrating government, your book is.
