She wrote for a living. But who wanted her dead? When bestselling author Annie Morrissey is found dead, her daughter Niamh knows in her gut it's no accident - even if the case needs a good edit. The village is strangely uneventful. The suspects are suspiciously normal. The leads quickly turn into dead ends. But when Annie's final manuscript lands on the doormat, the pages humming with mystery and suspense, the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur. This can't be a coincidence. Because if Niamh learnt anything from her mother's crime fiction, it's that there's no such thing. And that village secrets never stay buried for long.
