Mystery and intrigue with a decidedly literary bent, from the bestselling crime writer When successful biographer Rona Parish is asked to write the life-story of a bestselling author, recently deceased, she is intrigued - to say the least. After all, Theo Harvey led a very colourful life, and died in mysterious circumstances. But Rona's husband Max is wary and, it soon becomes apparent, with good reason...As Rona begins to delve into Theo Harvey's life and death, and to interview his friends and family - some more willing than others - she realises that she has taken on a poisoned chalice.
I'm always attracted to mysteries featuring some kind of book plot and this one was intriguing. Very likeable characters. Even if you guess the plot, it makes little difference as there is pleasure in the story and characters themselves. It made me look for other of her books and hope that there were more -- or will be -- of Rona Parrish.
