How do you investigate your own murder…?
The good news is that The Word is Murder, the first book in the Hawthorne series, is being turned into a major feature film.
The bad news is that the director is pretentious, the two stars hate each other, and the producer has run out of money.
And things are about to get much worse.
In the middle of shooting, the actor playing Hawthorne is stabbed – which leaves the real Hawthorne with no choice. He has to step in and investigate his own murder.
Because the killer may not have got the right man. Was it Hawthorne himself who was meant to be the target?
A riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma, A Deadly Episode is an intriguing page-turner that once again demonstrates why Anthony Horowitz is the reigning king of the modern whodunit.
