A Killer Plot: A Jane Hepburn Mystery (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780593803028)

In the follow-up to A Novel Murder, mystery author Jane Hepburn is back and ready to leave her sleuthing skills in the pages of her novels. That is, until she's invited to a prestigious literary party in London--where the gathering of glamorous attendees may be hiding a killer.

Jane Hepburn has almost made it. After solving the murder of her literary agent at last season's crime book festival, Jane has received a burst of internet fame that landed her an invite to the coveted Cecil Court book party in London. Visiting beloved bookstores along the winding alleyway of Cecil Court, and brushing shoulders with famous writers and the editors and agents who made them stars, Jane is looking forward to a fun, murder-free weekend and a distraction from her own writer's block. But an innocent moment of respite leads Jane to the charming, yet indolent assistant to a hotshot editor. The only problem is the assistant happens to be dead, and it is Jane who discovers her body.

Chaos ensues as the police get involved, but the case quickly grows more complicated when the assistant's boss also shows up dead. What secrets were they hiding? And what was someone trying to conceal by killing them? To ensure that another event isn't overshadowed by an unsolved murder, Jane and her two loyal friends, debut novelist and star of the party Natasha Martez, and agent intern Daniel Thurston, must put their sleuthing skills to the test. But nothing is as it seems in a party full of attendees with secrets they'd do anything to keep.
