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.
