About Who Wrote the Book of Death
In Who Wrote the Book of Death? someone
wants to finish off the writer instead of the book. When PI Greg
Nines agrees to protect a woman from death threats, he assumes that
her name isn't really Taliesyn Holroyd. Unfortunately, he also
assumes she's really a romance novelist with a book in progress. She
assumes he's stopped drinking after his own wife's murder. What else
they don't know could bury them both along with the book.
Greg Nines fell into a bottle after his pregnant
wife's murder. Now nearly three years sober, he fights to protect a
woman whose pain is even deeper than his own. If he can save her,
maybe he can save himself, too.
Beth Shepard thought masquerading as romance
novelist Taliesyn Holroyd would be a lark until someone threatens to
kill her. Terrified, she turns to Greg Nines, who revives all the
guilt she has run from since being raped in college.
Nines wonders why none of Taliesyn Holroyd's
books show a photograph. When he realizes that the author's bio is
fake, he wonders what else his gorgeous client isn't telling him. By
the time "Tally" admits the truth, Nines has a full line-up of
suspects: a bitter ex-husband, a college rapist, and a philandering
politician with mismatched eyes. He's falling in love with a woman
who doesn't even exist, and if he can't unravel the lies that bind
him and Beth Shepard to their separate pasts, nobody will have a
happy ending.
