I haven’t read anything quite like this before and passages about his books, TV shows and dealings with his agent are recounted with self-deprecating humour. But when she dies six hours later, strangled in her own living room with a curtain cord, it is most strange.

It puts Horowitz in a Dr. Lines are blurred as truth and fiction are merged so seamlessly in this extremely well written and characterised, sometimes dark, story. This unique approach gives a realism to the story, almost as if it’s fact rather than fiction. The Word Is Murder was included in one of one of the book boxes I received as Christmas gifts and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
