About This Novel
The annual recommended book of British crime novels, the latest work of Anthony Horowitz, author of "The Magpie Murders"! A quiet island where no murder has ever occurred, two sudden and brutal murders, and twelve suspects with their own agendas! Alderney is an isolated island where private detectives and crime fiction writers are invited to participate in a literary festival to promote their new books. But not long after, the two discovered that this seemingly peaceful island hid a strong malicious intent: a cable connecting Britain and France would pass through the island. It would dig up the cemetery on the island, disturb the souls of the dead who were murdered during the Nazi period, and turn the island residents against each other, making the entire island restless. And the authors who participated in the literary festival seemed to have unknown pasts... When the patron of the literary festival was brutally murdered, the island was completely sealed off. The murderer is still on the island, and the second murder is about to happen...
