An original spin on the crime novel in which the race to gain the rights to an authors backlist proves to be more head-scratching - and deadly! - than the plots in his books. The Librarian Its 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 . . . The Reader That librarian Roly is a bit odd. Youd think hed be happy with my blogs research into a largely forgotten author, but hes . . . resistant. If I can get into Duncans home - and his mysterious garden shed - I know Ill find what Im looking for . . . The Publisher 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 Duncans old publishing house realizes theyve missed a trick! The Editor 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 whats happened to the rights before they do . . . The Writer After twenty years, will the sudden interest in this authors forgotten mysteries reveal a dark - and deadly - twist? 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.
