Description
Death of a Scriptwriter by M. C. Beaton is a mystery novel that follows Patricia Martyn-Broyd, a retired detective writer, as she becomes embroiled in a real-life murder investigation. When a television company approaches her to film her last detective story, she is shocked to discover that the screenwriter is known for his violent scripts and that the leading lady is to be portrayed in an unflattering light. As Patricia is accused of murder, she turns to her friend, local policeman Hamish Macbeth, for help. With its intricate plot and sardonic tone, this book is a treat for fans of the genre.
