Description
New from bestselling author JR Ripley! Anthony Mulish believes he's the world's greatest author. Unfortunately, the world and his long-suffering agent disagree. Out of frustration, he's written a cozy mystery novel under a pen name. To everyone's surprise (especially his agent's) and his chagrin, it's a bestseller. Now Anthony is being toasted as the special guest of honor at a mystery conference. Anthony being Anthony, he rubs everyone the wrong way, especially the other authors - anyone of whom would probably love to see him dead. Then one of the attendees is brutally murdered. Anthony vows to find the killer. He's already successfully solved a murder mystery in a bestselling novel so how hard can it be? AUTHOR INTRO: Death Gets Cozy is an affectionate spoof/satire/sendup? of mysteries in general and cozies in particular. I decided to write this story, the story of the most pompous, annoying, blowhard, takes-himself-too-seriously author that I could devise. Okay, maybe I just looked in the mirror and wrote what I saw…I'll let you, the readers, decide. Remember, I am a cozy writer too. That fun I'm poking, I'm poking at myself. A sense of humor, especially directed at oneself, I believe is essential.
