Deadly Episode, A: Anthony Horowitz

A DEADLY EPISODE
By Anthony Horowitz
Hawthorne and Horowitz Mystery

Genre: Mystery / Detective Fiction / Amateur Sleuth
Age: Adult

🎭 THE ACTOR IS DEAD. BUT WAS THE WRONG MAN THE TARGET?

A movie adaptation of the first Hawthorne and Horowitz mystery is already in trouble when David Caine, the actor playing Detective Inspector Daniel Hawthorne, is found murdered on set.

Caine had plenty of enemies—a fired assistant, an angry director, a betrayed co-star, a former agent, and more. But Hawthorne begins to wonder if the murder was actually meant for him.

As the investigation moves from a film set on the English coast to Hawthorne’s hometown in Yorkshire, old secrets emerge: a suspicious death, a burned-down school, blackmail, and a murder at an Elizabethan country house.
