About this audiobook

She wrote the book on murder. Has she penned her own ending?

Following the death of her mother – the bestselling crime writer Annie Morrissey – Niamh moves into her mother’s village, ostensibly to take care of the grief admin but in reality to shut herself away from the world.

Until two plot twists occur:

The advanced copy of her mother’s latest book lands on the doorstep.

The new mystery has eerie echoes of her death...

Reading between the lines, Niamh begins to suspect the death of the novelist was no accident. She’s suddenly confronted with the kind of puzzle she’d only read about in her mother’s mysteries – but might they hold the answers too?

From the award-winning novelist & screenwriter comes a delightful puzzle box mystery that'll leave you guessing until the very last page...
