a private investigator goes undercover

Beschreibung

Private investigator Edie Fox gets a very novel assignment... Concerned that the live-in carers are stealing from his eccentric older sister, Dylan McCrimmon asks Edie Fox to keep an eye on her affairs. Given that Suzie led a colourful and eventful life, the plan is for Edie to masquerade as a ghostwriter helping to write her memoirs. Edie enters the bohemian Oxford household, wins Suzie's confidence, and soon warms to her study. But calamity strikes when, during a garden party, one of the carers falls from a balcony to their death. Could they have been murdered? If so, given the layout of the house, only a few of the attendees could be responsible. Edie will have to really get into the role and establish the full truth of Suzie's past for the case to be wrapped up. THE GHOSTWRITER'S STUDY is the third book in a series of hilarious standalone cozy mysteries by bestselling author Julie Highmore. The full list of books is as follows: 1. THE MISSING AMERICAN 2. THE RUNAWAY HUSBAND 3. THE GHOSTWRITER'S STUDY If you enjoy fiction by Richard Osman, Jesse Sutanto, Rachel Ward, and T E Kinsey, you'll adore these books!

Autor

After having her three children, Julie became a mature student at first Westminster College, then Oxford Brookes University, where she gained a degree in English. As part of the course, she studied creative writing with Philip Pullman, who encouraged her to continue with her writing after graduation. This she did, and her published work includes nine rom-com novels, and more recently, a crime fiction series for The Book Folks. The Missing American - the first in the series - features the somewhat flawed, Oxford-based private investigator, Edie Fox; a single mother and very young grandmother who inadvertently gets her precious family caught up in her first big case. Although her recent novels have ventured into some dark places, Julie manages to inject humour into the stories without diminishing the danger of situations Edie finds herself in.Between graduating and becoming a published author, Julie taught English as a foreign language, and for several years was a reader for Oxford University Press's Children's Books.She enjoys music, binge-watching a good TV series, country strolls, doing the New York Times crossword, and hanging out with her husband and ever-expanding family. With two Edie books now in production and a third following in Spring 2023, Julie is hoping to continue with the series while also exploring other crime-fiction paths.
