Mystery Lovers Review:
DI Vera Stanhope may be sloppy, unattractive, and almost friendless; but she is fierce, humorous, and strangely endearing. And she loves the challenge of a complicated murder case. This latest case has the feel of a country house murder, where the suspects are all writers learning about crime fiction...and reality seems to be mirroring fiction. A great addition to a wonderful series. [KO]
