A best-selling mystery author gets involved in a murder investigation and incurs the wrath of one of the detectives because he is making more headway in solving the case than the police are.
Best-selling author Sam Hendricks gets caught up in another real-life murder as he writes another mystery. He spends his time writing, trying to solve real murders, and working on his social life. This time, as he is writing his next book, someone contacts him about a woman who has disappeared. When someone commits murder, he juggles writing his next novel, with solving a murder, and once again, he seems to get places and have sources that the detectives do not have. The book combines suspense and comedy.
