She wrote for a living. But who wanted her dead?

When bestselling author Annie Morrissey is found dead, her daughter Niamh knows in her gut it’s no accident – even if the case needs a good edit.

The village is strangely uneventful.

The suspects are suspiciously normal.

The leads quickly turn into dead ends…

But when Annie’s final manuscript lands on the doormat, the pages humming with mystery and suspense, the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur.

This can’t be a coincidence.

Because if Niamh learnt anything from her mother’s crime fiction, it’s that there’s no such thing. And that village secrets never stay buried for long…

From the award-winning novelist & screenwriter, How to Kill a Crime Writer is a funny, mind-bending mystery that will stay with you long after the final page.

Sarah Lotz is a screenwriter and award-winning novelist whose previous work has been translated into over twenty languages. Her last high concept novel, Impossible, was shortlisted for the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize for Comic Fiction & the Comedy Women in Print Prize. She lives on the Welsh borders in a suspiciously uneventful hamlet with her family and far too many rescue dogs.
