"When editor Susan Ryeland is given the ta ttered manuscript of Alan Conway's latest novel\, she has little idea it w ill change her life. She's worked with the revered crime writer for years and his detective\, Atticus Pund\, is renowned for solving crimes in the s leepy English villages of the 1950s. As Susan knows only too well\, vintag e crime sells handsomely. It's just a shame that it means dealing with an author like Alan Conway...
\nBut Conway's latest tale of murder at P ye Hall is not quite what it seems. Yes\, there are dead bodies and a host of intriguing suspects\, but hidden in the pages of the manuscript there lies another story: a tale written between the very words on the page\, te lling of real-life jealousy\, greed\, ruthless ambition and murder.
\n< p>From \;Sunday Times \;bestseller Anthony Horowitz comes \;Ma gpie Murders\, his deliciously dark take on the vintage crime novel\, brou ght bang- up-to-date with a fiendish modern twist." \;\n
