Book Synopsis
This may be the best Brett novel yet - Booklist Starred Review

When an author event at the local library ends in murder, Jude finds herself a suspect in the waspishly witty new Fethering mystery.

Having been booked to give a talk at Fethering Library, successful author Burton St Clair invites his old friend Jude to come along. Although they haven''t met for twenty years, Jude is not surprised to find that St Clair hasn''t changed, with his towering ego and somewhat shaky relationship with the truth. What Jude hadn''t been suspecting however was that the evening would end in sudden, violent death.

More worrying, from Jude''s point of view, is the fact that the investigating police officers seem to be convinced that she herself was responsible for the crime. With the evidence stacking up against her, Jude enlists the help of her neighbour Carole not just to solve the murder but to prevent herself from being arrested for committing it.
