Publisher's Synopsis
Novelist Tom Oliver is not the most popular man in the world and he isn't much missed when disappears at the end of a week tutoring at a writers' centre in rural Shropshire. However, it eventually falls to DI Frank Kavanagh and his colleague DC Jane Salt to ascertain whether one of his literary enemies, a former lover, or perhaps a humiliated husband has finally exacted revenge. Is his disappearance an innocent affair, or has he himself been "written out"?
