Beschrijving uitgever

She planned her own funeral. But did she arrange her own murder? Buried secrets, murder and a trail of bloody clues lie at the heart of Anthony Horowitz's page-turning detective series.

'EASILY THE GREATEST OF OUR CRIME WRITERS' Sunday Times
_________________

A woman is strangled six hours after organising her own funeral.

Did she know she was going to die? Did she recognise her killer?

Enter Daniel Hawthorne, a detective with a genius for solving crimes and an ability to hold secrets very close.

With him is his writing partner, Anthony Horowitz. Together they will set out to solve his most puzzling of mysteries.

What neither of them know is that they are about to embark on a dark and dangerous journey whether the twists and turns are as unexpected as they are bloody.

Paternoster03 ,

An original murder mystery

It is unusual to have the writer of a book as main character. This original approach gives you insight in the world of a writer, while the way this mystery develops keeps you reading. Liked it a lot.
