When Seacastle hosts a vintage fair and a prestigious writers' conference under the same roof, Tanya Bowe expects nothing more dramatic than a strong haggle. She's several months pregnant and is doing her best to stay out of trouble as everyone, including her partner Harry, is treating her as if she is made of crystal. But then her sister Helen admits to writing a book and asks her to be her wingman at the conference. Tanya can't resist a foray into a different universe.
They enter a world where the lot of celebrity authors and their agents contrasts with that of the aspiring authors desperate for a shot. Egos clash and catty remarks abound. When an elderly author is found dead in her room, nobody turns a hair. But then another octogenarian writer expires, and Tanya is drawn into a web of secrets the literary world would much prefer to keep hidden. Ghostwritten books, stolen ideas, bitter grudges, and desperate ambition swirl through the conference, each thread pointing to someone with everything to gain... and nothing to lose.
With her sister Helen quietly pursuing her own writing dreams, Harry acting suspiciously, and the entire conference on edge, Tanya must navigate one last mystery before her world changes forever.Fans of Richard Osman's humour and Agatha Christie's twists will feel right at home in Seacastle, where coastal crime always comes with a side of cake.
