About this product

Product Information

In New York Times bestselling author Anthony Horowitz's ingenious fourth literary whodunit following The Word is Murder, The Sentence is Death, and A Line to Kill, Horowitz becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation--and only one man can prove his innocence: his newly estranged partner in solving crime, Detective Hawthorne. "I'm sorry but the answer's no." Reluctant author, Anthony Horowitz, has had enough. He tells ex-detective Daniel Hawthorne that after three books he's splitting and their deal is over. The truth is that Anthony has other things on his mind. His new play, a thriller called Mindgame, is about to open at the Vaudeville Theater in London's West End. Not surprisingly, Hawthorne declines a ticket to the opening night. The play is panned by the critics. In particular, Sunday Times critic Margaret Throsby gives it a savage review, focusing particularly on the writing. The next day, Throsby is stabbed in the heart with an ornamental dagger which turns out to belong to Anthony, and has his fingerprints all over it. Anthony is arrested by an old enemy . . . Detective Inspector Cara Grunshaw. She still carries a grudge from her failure to solve the case described in the second Hawthorne adventure, The Sentence is Death , and blames Anthony. Now she's out for revenge. Thrown into prison and fearing for both his personal future and his writing career, Anthony is the prime suspect in Throsby's murder and when a second theatre critic is found to have died in mysterious circumstances, the net closes in. Ever more desperate, he realizes that only one man can help him. But will Hawthorne take the call?

Reviews
"This humorous homage to golden age closed-circle mysteries is not to be missed." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Playful ... An efficiently old-fashioned whodunit with all the surprises you'd expect." -- Kirkus Reviews "Excellent . . . . Readers of character-driven novels will love the twists and turns of this Agatha Christie-style mystery that leads to an unexpected reveal. Perfect for fans of G. M. Malliet, Elly Griffiths, and Richard Osman." -- Library Journal (starred review) "Fall is the time to read a mystery novel, and Anthony Horowitz consistently delivers a great whodunnit." -- Town & Country, "This humorous homage to golden age closed-circle mysteries is not to be missed." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Playful ...

Not to worry, their relationship isn't over quite yet. There's much more to discover, and readers will be waiting eagerly for more from one of the best mystery writers around." -- Booklist (starred review) " Gleefully witty." -- Tom Nolan for The Wall Street Journal "The thing I most like about the mysteries of Anthony Horowitz -- besides their smooth writing, skillful plotting and delightful sense of humor -- is this: Horowitz gives you clues. He lays them all out there, and if you are sharp and paying attention, you can solve them. I assume. I never have." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune "An adventure that will enchant mystery lovers, Anglophiles and theater buffs." -- Washington Post "The Twist of a Knife is consistently, delightfully entertaining, with Horowitz's own theatrical experience providing just the right amount of bittersweet bite." -- Air Mail "Fall is the time to read a mystery novel, and Anthony Horowitz consistently delivers a great whodunnit." -- Town & Country, "Playful ...
