Death and the Lit Chick: A St Just Mystery: Bk. 2 by G. M. Malliet (Paperback, 2009)

Everyone has gathered at Dalmorton Castle in Scotland for a crime writers' conference, including Kimberlee Kalder, the publishing industry's 'It' girl. Totally hot and couture-clad, this bestselling chick-lit mystery writer has captured the envious - and resentful - attentions of all. Rumour has it that prima donna Kimberlee is shopping around for a new agent (and the best deal for her latest book), and there are some who would stop at thing to steal her as a client. Then Kimberlee turns up dead at the bottom of the castle's bottle dungeon. With the help of his lovely sidekick, Portia, Detective Chief Inspector St. Just is hot on the trail of the true killer in a castle full of cagey mystery conisseurs who live and breathe malicious murder and artful alibis.

Author Biography
G. M. Malliet's first St. Just mystery won the 2008 Agatha Award for Best First Novel, and was chosen by Kirkus Reviews as a best book of the year. It was nominated for several awards, including the Anthony, the Macavity and a Lefty Award for best police procedural. Her series from Minotaur featuring a former MI5 Agent turned vicar of a small English village debuted in Autumn of 2011. Of the fourth book in the series, Cleveland.com raved: [Malliet] may be the best mystery author writing in English at the moment (along with Tana French). She's certainly the most entertaining. She attended graduate school in Cambridge and Oxford; she and her husband travel frequently to the UK, the setting for her books. Weycombe is her first book of dark suspense.
