A wealthy woman strangled six hours after she's arranged her own funeral. A very private detective uncovering secrets but hiding his own. A reluctant author drawn into a story he can't control. What do they have in common? Unexpected death, an unsolved mystery and a trail of bloody clues lie at the heart of Anthony Horowitz's page-turning new thriller. SPREAD THE WORD. THE WORD IS MURDER.

Foyle's War scriptwriter Anthony Horowitz, hoping to write something realistic again for adults after churning out the Alex Rider books, signs on as Dr Watson to a grouchy but astute ex-CID detective trying to solve the murder of a woman who'd booked her own funeral earlier that day. After a second gruesome murder, Horowitz thinks he's solved the case - only to find himself at the killer's mercy. - Stephen (QBD)
