A Deadly Episode

Brilliant . . . the author combines delicious dry humour with a rigorous fair-play whodunnit, but this installment’s Scream-like Hollywood satire takes it to another level

Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

Delightful

Library Journal

The sixth outing for the sleuthing duo of Horowitz and Hawthorne, A Deadly Episode, is another winner.

The sixth in the brilliant Hawthrone and Horowitz series... (is) layers of fun.

Horowitz is quite simply a brilliant writer - he's funny, smart and knows how to craft a good story.... Be warned. Horowitz is addictive

I take such pleasure from this series and this, the sixth, is every bit as good as its predecessors... dare I say, my favourite.

I loved A Deadly Episode from beginning to end. Here’s hoping that this is not the last we see of the partnership between Hawthorne and Horowitz in a novel written by the real Anthony Horowitz.
