Publisher Description

6th in Death on Demand series At Annie Laurance's Death on Demand bookstore on Broward's Rock Island, South Carolina, murder suddenly isn't confined to the well-stocked shelves. Author Elliot Morgan's abrupt demise during a weekly gathering of famous mystery writers called the Sunday Night Regulars is proof positive that a bloody sword is sometimes mightier than a brilliant pen. With Annie in the unenviable position of primary police suspect, the pretty young mystery maven and her wealthy paramour, Max Darling, embark on an investigation into a classic locked-room mystery with high stakes. Failing to unmask a brutal and ingenious killer could mean prison for Ms. Laurance. Success could mean her death. Who could plot a murder better than a mystery writer?

"Even though this is the first in the series and the author improves her efforts on later books, I still found this to be charming and innovative introduction to the series and the characters. I found she pulled me in immediately and held my attention throughout. She opened with a list of items, which sounds dull but was so well written that if captivated me. Her use of painting to reflect mysteries was original ( to me at least) and her knowledge of the field of mystery writing was impresive."

    " It was a good book but a little too easy to figure out who the murderer was. I had it figured out within the first few chapters which kind of takes the suspense out of the book. But overall I enjoyed it. "

    " Stacey's Pick. Annie, who runs a mystery bookstore, becomes involved in a mystery herself when she's suspected of committing a murder in her own store. Along with a fun story, you also get great recommendations for other must-read mysteries "
