Famous Last Words: A Murder Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781495973208)

"A gripping, witty, fiendishly clever thriller." (Reveal) "You'll be engrossed... a gem of a page-turner." (Now) "If you're looking for a real thriller, this is it... guaranteed to keep you guessing." (OK ) A paradise island. A celebrity guestlist. A brutal murder... When Carter Bayley, the most powerful man in television, invites his famous friends for a weekend on his private island, the stage is set for three days of birthday celebrations. But it's a volatile mix of celebrities, wannabes and has-beens... and ego clashes quickly threaten to poison the festivities. As old rivalries turn nasty and murky secrets surface, it also becomes clear not everyone is who they claim to be. Unbeknownst to the A-list guests, a violent storm is closing in and soon they will be stranded in the middle of the Adriatic Sea with a body on their hands and a killer in their midst. Now their best hope is their worst nightmare - a disgraced tabloid journalist, who must race to unravel a sinister mystery before the murderer makes one last horrifying move... An homage to the golden era of murder mysteries, a biting commentary on modern celebrity culture and a sly expose of media skullduggery, Famous Last Words is a riotous tale of beautiful people doing ugly things. With a cast of glamorous characters and an unconventional detective who might well be out of his depth, it has already been hailed as an original and refreshing take on the classic whodunnit, a gripping thriller and an inventive slice of contemporary crime fiction.
