All She Wrote (Holmes & Moriarity, #2)

Posted on by

Giving screwball mystery a whole deadly new meaning.A murderous fall down icy stairs is nearly the death of Anna Hitchcock, the much beloved American Agatha Christie and Christopher Holmes s former mentor Anna s plea for him to host her annual winter writing retreat touches all Kit s sore spots traveling, teaching writing classes, and separation from his new lover, J.X Moriarity.For J.X., Kit s cancellation of yet another romantic weekend is the death knell of a relationship that has been limping along for months But that s just as well, right Kit isn t ready for anything serious and besides, Kit owes Anna far too much to refuse.Faster than you can say Miss Marple wears boxer shorts, Kit is snooping around Anna s elegant, snowbound mansion in the Berkshires for clues as to who s trying to kill her A tough task with six amateur sleuths underfoot, six budding writers with a tangled web of dark undercurrents running among them.Slowly, Kit gets the uneasy feeling that the secret may lie between the pages of someone s fictional past Unfortunately, a clever killer is one step ahead And it may be too late for J.X to ride to the rescue.Warning Contains one irascible, forty year old mystery writer who desperately needs to get laid, one exasperated thirty something ex cop only too happy to oblige, an isolated country manor that needs the thermostat cranked up, various assorted aspiring and perspiring authors, and a merciless killer who may have read one too many mystery novels.

Everything happened in a closed circuit, in a solitary place a lodge in the forest and with that classic traditional grand chatty ending As I wrote in my review after finishing book 1.as listening to

caricaturesque rather than your typical human being with charming quirks and flaws Where Jake What keeps J.X coming back forwasof a mystery to me than the plot of All She Wrote It s not hard to grasp
