'Fiendish good fun' ANTHONY HOROWITZ
If you want to get away with murder, play by the rules
A series of unsolved murders with one thing in common: each of the deaths bears an eerie resemblance to the crimes depicted in classic mystery novels.
The deaths lead FBI Agent Gwen Mulvey to mystery bookshop Old Devils. Owner Malcolm Kershaw had once posted online an article titled 'My Eight Favourite Murders,' and there seems to be a deadly link between the deaths and his list - which includes Agatha Christie's The ABC Murders, Patricia Highsmith's Strangers on a Train and Donna Tartt's The Secret History.
Can the killer be stopped before all eight of these perfect murders have been re-enacted?

This smart and super stylish thriller is a tremendously enjoyable love letter to crime fiction., Sunday Mirror
Engagingly original. This [is a] multilayered mystery that brims with duplicity, betrayal and revenge - all bubbling slowly to the surface. Swanson has a bent for revenge and murder. Fans won't be disappointed., USA Today
A devilish premise combined with jaw dropping execution . Swanson hits every note in this homage to the old-school crime novel, and the turnabout ending will leave readers reeling in delight., Booklist (starred review)
The pleasures of following, and trying to anticipate, a narrator who's constantly second- and third-guessing himself and everyone around him are authentic and intense . You wish the mounting complications, like a magician's showiest routine, could go on forever., Kirkus (starred review)
