The third installment in the realistic fiction Hawthorne and Horowitz mystery series. Horowitz and Hawthorne are invited to an exclusive literary convention on a small island off the English coast. When a wealthy local mover and shaker is found murdered after a party, the island is locked down and Hawthorne and Horowitz become involved in the case. There are plenty of suspects, with plenty of reasons for murder - even a old nemesis of Hawthorne's, so who is guilty?
