About this book
Editor Susan Ryeland settles in to read the latest manuscript from Alan Conway, the prickly author of a hugely popular series of village mysteries set in 1950s England. His detective, Atticus Pünd, is called to a sleepy Somerset village after a housekeeper's death, and a small community full of secrets lines up for a classic investigation. Then Susan realises the manuscript is incomplete, and the missing pages lead her into a second mystery in the real world of publishing. Built as a novel within a novel, this is a witty, affectionate tribute to golden-age detective fiction and a cleverly layered puzzle with two sets of clues to follow.
