About

When celebrated crime novelist Harold Craven invites an ambitious young journalist to his remote country home, shes expecting an interview not a murder scene. But as fiction begins to blur with reality, the truth becomes harder to write and even harder to survive.

Full of twists, mind games, and sharp dialogue, Murder in Writing is a tense and stylish thriller that will keep you guessing until the final page. With secrets to uncover and motives to question, this is one mystery you wont want to miss.

From the pen of playwright Ian McCutcheon, this original whodunnit delivers classic suspense with a modern edge.
