J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Agatha Christie, and other literary legends join forces to unravel a deadly conspiracy in this gripping mystery that sweeps from the halls of Oxford to the streets of London and the shores of Loch Ness. “This multiverse adventure is imaginative, intriguing, and wildly satisfying.”—John Hendrix, New York Times bestselling illustrator and author of The Mythmakers: The Remarkable Fellowship of C. S. Lewis and J. R. R Tolkien In the shadowy streets of 1936 Oxford, England, members of a secret society keep turning up dead. When J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, and their fellow literary masterminds, known as the Inklings, are called upon to catch a killer, they trade their pens for magnifying glasses. With time running out, they get a helping hand from mystery writers Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers to unravel a sinister web of secrets. Packed with historical details, intrigue, and a thrilling whodunit, this novel is a masterful blend of high-stakes drama. Dive into a world where the creators of fantasy and mystery confront a real-life menace in a race against the clock. Will dark forces prevail, or will these literary giants crack the case before the murderer strikes again?

BUT OLD HABITS DIE HARD. When Annie Adams heads to London to visit her mother, Laura, the last thing she expects to find is a dead body. Least of all for it to be Fliss, the budding artist Laura had just taken under her wing. Annie is no stranger to murder - after all, she's solved a few cases already. And something about the way Fliss died feels familiar. She's seen a case like this before. Or read about it, rather, in the journals of her dead Great Aunt Frances, whose close friend was killed in the 1960s in the exact same way: with her heart surgically removed from her chest. As threats pile up on Laura's doorstep, it soon becomes clear that she's next, and that she's hiding something . . . With her mother's life on the line, can Annie find the killer before it's too late? From the gritty streets of 1960s Soho to the lofty galleries of present-day West London, follow Annie and Frances as they race to bring a killer to justice. *************************************** <h4>Praise for the Castle Knoll Files</h4> 'VERY funny' Jennie Godfrey 'Plenty of twists and red herrings' Guardian 'Smart, twisty, and original' Heat 'Thrilling' G.

What Happened That Night

War die Giftmenge im Schlaftrunk wirklich tödlich? Kann ein Luftballon einen gestohlenen Diamanten mit 500 Karat tragen? Lässt sich mit einem einzelnen Schuss ein Fluchtfahrzeug stoppen? Geht es im Gerichtssaal tatsächlich so zu? In der Kriminalliteratur nutzen die Autorinnen und Autoren häufig akribisch recherchierte Fakten, um die Glaubhaftigkeit des erzählten Geschehens sicherzustellen. Daneben treten oft Fiktionen, die die Ereignisse dramatischer erscheinen lassen sollen. Nicht immer sind die Fakten von den Fiktionen eindeutig zu unterscheiden, und es kann sich lohnen, dem Wahrheitsgehalt in Kriminalgeschichten nachzugehen. Anhand einiger Beispiele beleuchtet dieser Band unter anderem die naturwissenschaftliche, technische, medizinische, toxikologische, geographische und rechtswissenschaftliche Perspektive, zeigt, wo sich Fehler und Ungenauigkeiten eingeschlichen haben, und welche Kriminalromane plausibel erzählt sind.
