Synopsis
Thanks to an elderly spinster sleuth and her ingenious cat,
Christopher Holmes has enjoyed a celebrated career as a bestselling mystery
writer. Until now. Sales are down and his new editor is allergic to geriatric
gumshoes. On the advice of his agent, he reinvents his fortyish, frumpy,
recently dumped self into the sleek, sexy image of a literary lion, and heads
for a Northern California writers conference to try and resurrect his career. A
career nearly as dead as the body he stumbles over in the woods. In a weirdly
déjà vu replay of one of his own novels, he finds himself stranded in an
isolated lodge full of frightened women—and not a lawman in sight. Except for
J.X. Moriarity, former cop and bestselling novelist. The man with whom he
shared a one-night stand—okay, maybe three—long ago. The man who wants to
arrest him for murder. A ruthless, stalking killer, or a hot, handsome
ex-lover. Which poses the greater danger? It’s elementary, my dear Holmes!
