<p><b><i>An original spin on the crime novel in which the race to gain the rights to an author's backlist proves to be more head-scratching - and deadly! - than the plots in his books.</i></b><br><br><b>"Another absolutely brilliant book from Ripley" - </b><i><b>Booklist </b></i><b>Starred Review</b><br> <b><br> The Librarian</b><br><br> It's been two decades since mystery writer Duncan Torrens was last published. I should know, I was his editor. So why a blogger would turn up asking questions about the rights to his books is beyond me . . .<br><br> <b>The Reader</b><br><br> That librarian Roly is a bit odd. You'd think he'd be happy with my blog's research into a largely forgotten author, but he's . . . resistant. If I can get into Duncan's home - and his mysterious garden shed - I know I'll find what I'm looking for . . .<br><br> <b>The Publisher</b><br><br> Torrens' books are crying out for a revival. I just need that blogger, Jacon, to work out who holds the rights to his backlist. Then I can acquire them before Duncan's old publishing house realises they've missed a trick!<br><br> <b>The Editor</b><br><br> I never worked directly with Duncan before he died, but if someone is sniffing round, there must be money involved. I just need to find out what's happened to the rights before they do . . .<br><br> <b>The Writer</b><br><br> After twenty years, will the sudden interest in this author's forgotten mysteries reveal a dark - and deadly - twist?<br><br> <b>Told from the point of view of five unreliable narrators, none of whom can be trusted - The Librarian, The Reader, The Publisher, The Editor and The Writer - this amusing and darkly intriguing novel is a refreshingly fun, subversive take on the crime fiction genre.</b></p>
