Halp
Other half is reading a book where the main character can view a recently deceased person's life

I remember something similar - seeing someone's final moments through their eyes (but it not always going 100% right?) and using it to solve crimes and such - from a TV series/film... Or maybe another book?

But I'm just not able to remember the character/thing I saw.
Friends have made several suggestions, mostly stuff I haven't seen.

Any ideas?

A useful starting point might be here:

There's a link there to the Wikipedia entry on Optography which might help as well.

@noodlemaz not someone seeing through their eyes, but Pushing Daisies is about a Pastry Chef who can bring the dead back to life for a minute, questions them and solves murders, but it's very slapstick. Was an enjoyable watch, fairly wholesome, remember watching it with my best friend while snuggled up under some blankets after long uni days. I'm case you're looking for something with those vibes to watch
