Autor Andrew Cartmel
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2023
Launching a new series, a cast of lovable rogues face fiendish puzzles and murderous villains in this love letter to Agatha Christie murder mysteries and classic whodunnits. Introducing a new series from the creator of the beloved Vinyl Detective novels.

Bolivia Stanmer is an addict-turned-dealer of classic crime paperbacks, who is chasing a hot tip across Richmond, London, for a treasure trove of second-hand books: a complete set of Sleuth Hound originals. They're the perfect gift for the object of her affections, to be left by her secret admirer. Only problem is they aren't for sale, but still in their owner's house - not that ownership, or locks or the law will stop Bolivia. But the owner is a criminal, a violent one, and Bolivia's crush posts pictures of the mystery gift online she's in a race against time to save their life...

Notă biografică

Andrew Cartmel was born in London and grew up in midwestern Canada where, among other things, he learned the meaning of the words "wind chill factor.? The fine public libraries of his childhood provided a rich feast (Ray Bradbury, Robert Heinlein, the Oz books) and Andrew never wanted to be anything except a writer. On returning to London to study at university, his game plan was to support himself writing for television while getting established as a novelist. This led him into a detour ? and down a rabbit hole ? which included a distinguished sojourn script editing Doctor Who for three years (search "Cartmel masterplan?). At the same time, he began writing for comics and today he co-writes the Rivers of London graphic novels. A playwright and crime novelist, Andrew created the Vinyl Detective while listening to a lot of music, most of it good. Most of it very good. Andrew Cartmel lives in London with too many books, too many records and just enough cats.
