I love good murder mysteries. This one had my head spinning. Is it a story of multiple murders and multiple suspects, about the author who wrote the stories, or the editor who had the job of reading his books? Well, all of the above. It is an elaborate interweaving of cases that served to only baffle my mind with information. I enjoyed listening to the audio version of this book, even though I often had trouble figuring out which story I was listening to. This is one book I will have to read for myself page by page to fully appreciate all its nuances.

Adults who enjoy mysteries that make them feel like they are a part of a team solving the mystery

I like how Alan Conway chose the names for his characters and how real his detective character, Atticus Pünd, became to him.

It was a bit confusing, as the book was about the actual murders, but also about the author who wrote a book about the murders, and the editor who had to read the book.
