DS Fielding and her team have quite a case to solve after discovering a series of deaths in Manchester resemble the work of a popular novelist.
Newly retired Hannah Sanderson loves reading crime novels, so when her favorite author, Jonas Burke, comes to town for a book signing, she wants to meet him. However, when she starts reading his latest novel, she finds that one of the crimes featured in it is too close to home.

But when Hannah goes on to explain that his death is described in intricate detail in a novel she has recently read, Sally's suspicions are raised, and she begins an investigation.
With a small team in place, Sally and her colleagues cross-reference all the descriptions of Burke's fictitious crimes with cases in the police database. Will DS Fielding be able to solve the mystery before anyone else gets hurt? And is the truth really stranger than fiction?

Person
Pamela Murray is from the North East of England, and has spent most of her life living in Boldon. She began writing at an early age when she and her school friend used to write stories for one another. The writing continued on and off over the years, but was only recently reignited when the same school friend introduced her to the local writers group she was in. Pamela had intended to enter Journalism after leaving school but found herself going to work in a Public Library instead, and has always had more than a passing interest in books and literature. When not writing, Pamela is passionate about Cinema and her three grandchildren. She has also appeared as a Supporting Artiste in two episodes of the hit TV crime series "Vera".
