Linda's Reviews > A Line to Kill

Great Fun!

Another entertaining pastiche by Anthony Horowitz! In this inventive series, Horowitz writes himself into the book and plays Watson to"consulting detective" Hawthorne, a hardboiled British Sherlock Holmes. Here Horowitz and Hawthorne go to a literary festival on the Channel island of Alderney to promote their first book, where of course, murder (s) occur. In typical Horowitz fashion, he satirizes the genre while providing a compelling mystery rife with clues and red herrings. A Line to Kill is an excellent read if you want to escape for a while.
