I finally gave up on this book. The numerous one-liner references to real mysteries and their writers and protagonists just got to be too much for me. Must paragraphs have at least one metaphor or simile to slug through. Follow that with a character who writes messages to all and sundry using watercolor flowers as stand-ins for words and I met my Waterloo. I believe this is the first of a series of books with the term "Dead" in the title. I wanted to like it, but sadly could not stay the course.
