About this ebook

Six Friends. One Game. One Murder. Can You Tell Fact from Fiction?

‘The master puppeteer of literary crime’ JANICE HALLETT

–
May, 1999:
Six friends gather at a country house for a birthday.
The host insists they play a game.

Each will write a story about one friend murdering another.
Points are given for plausibility.
No secret, grudge or affair is off limits.

Six stories. Six murders.
And now six unexpected motives.

Because this game is about to get murderously real . . .
