Charlie McGinley wanted literary fame—He got a front-row seat to murder.

Charlie writes hardboiled detective novels from his New Mexico ranch. His books sell, but never earn the respect he craves. He wants to be taken seriously. Maybe even win an award.

So, when world-famous author Jon Masterson invites him to join his prestigious writer’s group, Charlie jumps at the chance.

Sure, Masterson’s rich, smug and conceited, but Charlie’s willing to play nice if it means finally being taken seriously as a writer.

Then cracks in the façade start to appear. Is Masterson mentoring new talent, or stealing their work?

When writers in the group start turning up dead, Charlie must outwit a killer, save his family, and try to avoid being the next chapter in a deadly tale.

This darkly comedic mystery is packed with wit, unexpected twists, and set against the stark beauty of New Mexico. It will keep you on the edge of your seat.

It's perfect for fans of hardboiled detective fiction, flawed detectives, and those who appreciate a good laugh.

This wickedly funny, twisty tale will keep you chuckling and guessing from start to finish.
