Book Overview
This brand-new historical mystery series represents an exciting new direction for award-winning science fiction writer Eric Brown. London, 1955. When crime writer Donald Langham's literary agent asks for his help in sorting out 'a delicate matter', little does Langham realize what he's getting himself into. For a nasty case of blackmail leads inexorably to murder as London's literary establishment is rocked by a series of increasingly bizarre deaths. With three members of the London Crime Writers' Association coming to sudden and violent ends, what at first appeared to be a series of suicides looks suspiciously like murder - and there seems to be something horribly familiar about the various methods of despatch. With the help of his literary agent's assistant, the delectable Maria Dupre, Langham finds himself drawing on the skills of his fictional detective hero as he hunts a ruthless and fiendishly clever killer - a killer with old scores to settle.

Murder, murder everywhere

I really enjoyed this book. The characters are likeable and it was an entertaining story. Nothing too serious; just a nice, easy read for when you don't want to have to think so hard.
