From New York Times bestselling author Anthony Horowitz—featuring his famous literary detective, Atticus Pund, and Susan Ryeland, hero of Magpie Murders—a brilliantly complex mystery with echoes of Agatha Christie etired publisher Susan Ryeland is living the good life. She is running a R small hotel on a Greek island with her long-term boyfriend, Andreas. It should be everything she’s always wanted. But is it? She’s exhausted with the responsibilities of making everything work on an island where nothing ever does, and, truth be told, she’s beginning to miss London. Then the Trehernes come to stay. The strange and mysterious story they tell, about an unfortunate murder that took place on the same day and in the same hotel in which their daughter was married—a picturesque inn on the Suffolk coast named Branlow Hall—fascinates Susan and piques her editor’s instincts. One of her former writers, the late Alan Conway, author of the fictional Magpie Murders, knew the murder victim—an advertising executive named Frank Parris—and once visited Branlow Hall. Conway based the third book in his detective series, Atticus Pund Takes the Case, on that very crime. The Trehernes’ daughter, Cecily, read Conway’s mystery and believed the book proves that the man convicted of Parris’s murder—a Romanian immigrant who was the hotel’s handyman—is innocent. When the Trehernes reveal that Cecily is now missing, Susan knows she must return to England and find out what really happened. Brilliantly clever, thrilling, and full of twists that will keep readers guessing with each revelation and clue, Moonflower Murders is a deviously dark take on vintage English crime fiction from one of the greatest masterminds of contemporary suspense, Anthony Horowitz. ANTHONY HOROWITZ, one of the UK’s most prolific and successful writers, may have committed more (fictional) murders than any other living author. His novels include Magpie Murders, Trigger Mortis, Moriarty, The House of Silk, The Word Is Murder, The Sentence Is Death, and the bestselling Alex Rider series for young adults. As a television screenwriter he created both Midsomer Murders and the BAFTA- winning Foyle’s War on PBS. He lives in London.
