Elizabeth Peters does it again. This book is WAY different from her other series so don't expect Amelia Peabody. This mystery revolves around the publishing enterprise and the format follow the Agatha Christie format. The story is a great yarn culmonating in the 'get all suspects in the same room'. Humor and excellent character development abound in the course of this mystery and will keep you reading. If you are a writer, or a want-to-be writer, this is a really fun mystery that you will appreciate becuase the heroine is a writer and incorporates the writing realities. This mystery was a surprise to me because the writing is very different from her other mysteries. The biggest similarity is the humor in character and plot development. This is a must read whether you like Elizabeth Peters or not. I've read all her books and this, off her main grid, is way too fun to ignor.
