Marble Hall Murders – A Brilliantly Twisty Metafictional Mystery by Anthony Horowitz

🔍 From bestselling author Anthony Horowitz (Magpie Murders, Moonflower Murders) comes Marble Hall Murders—a mind-bending literary mystery where the line between fiction and reality vanishes, and murder links past and present.

A New Pünd Mystery. A Real-Life Murder. A Dangerous Game.

🖋️ Former editor Susan Ryeland has returned to England, leaving her idyllic life in Greece behind. Tasked with editing Pünd’s Last Case, a continuation of the beloved Atticus Pünd detective series, she quickly realizes the assignment is far from ordinary.

The new author, Eliot Crace, believes his famous grandmother—renowned children's author Miriam Crace—was murdered twenty years ago. As Susan delves into Eliot's manuscript, set in the South of France and centered on the suspicious death of Lady Margaret Chalfont, startling parallels emerge. Both women were poisoned—and clues to the real murder may be hidden in the fictional pages.

Fiction Becomes Reality in a Deadly Way

As Eliot’s behavior spirals and a new murder strikes, Susan becomes the prime suspect. To clear her name, she must unravel the mystery behind both Lady Margaret’s death and Miriam Crace’s cold case—before she becomes the next victim.

📚 A clever, suspenseful, and masterfully layered whodunit, Marble Hall Murders is perfect for fans of classic mysteries, metafiction, and twisty thrillers with literary flair.
