Description

From the author of Ten Little Herrings, murder is on the menu when a two-bit British crime writer and his sub-par agent dine at a country estate.

Ethelred and Elsie are an unlikely duo: he’s a deeply mediocre mystery writer, and she’s his deeply nosy, chocolate-chomping agent. And yet they are stuck with one another, if only because their combined sleuthing abilities are much more impressive than anything either one of them can come up with alone. Tonight’s agenda: dinner with Ethelred’s pal “Shagger” Muntham and his titled wife. Elsie may not be overly fond of the Shag, but she wasn’t exactly hoping someone would murder him in the library of his own stately home. However, now that someone has done the dastardly deed, would it kill Ethelred to take a little interest, show a little Sherlockian spirit for once?

Praise for The Herring in the Library

“Biting social satire and loads of fun detective work.” —Booklist

“A wonderful send up both of Christie's classic country house murder, and the so-called “locked room” mystery.” —Reviewing the Evidence
