具体描述
One bright spring morning in London, Diana Cowper – the wealthy mother of a famous actor - enters a funeral parlor. She is there to plan her own service.
Six hours later she is found dead, strangled with a curtain cord in her own home.
Enter disgraced police detective Daniel Hawthorne, a brilliant, eccentric investigator who’s as quick with an insult as he is to crack a case. Hawthorne needs a ghost writer to document his life; a Watson to his Holmes. He chooses Anthony Horowitz.
Drawn in against his will, Horowitz soon finds himself a the center of a story he cannot control. Hawthorne is brusque, temperamental and annoying but even so his latest case with its many twists and turns proves irresistible. The writer and the detective form an unusual partnership. At the same time, it soon becomes clear that Hawthorne is hiding some dark secrets of his own.

##Typical British mystery with reference of drama, theatre and, of course, Hamlet. A very grumpy Holmes and a less amicable Watson plus a nice little plot on the platter, including enough red herrings.
评分##有些地方还蛮阿婆的；叙事比案件更有趣，也比较难得遇到地理和文化的reference都能看懂的书2333
评分##Typical British mystery with reference of drama, theatre and, of course, Hamlet. A very grumpy Holmes and a less amicable Watson plus a nice little plot on the platter, including enough red herrings.
评分作者这种吐槽编剧日常顺带侦破谋杀案的叙事手法我好喜欢。尤其有很多熟悉的英剧人名和影视八卦，超级有趣。 谋杀的诡计很妙，和作者一样跟着侦探全程参与，但确实没有猜到。 大结局的侦探先生和作者也太可爱了吧，侦探先生一句道歉就搞定作者，然后又惹怒。。 哈哈哈很是期待续集。
评分##1. 强烈的元小说特点让这本书在构思上显得比传统侦探小说更为“现代”；2.（作为作者和叙述者的）Anthony与前警官Hawthorne的组合颇有向华生与福尔摩斯致敬的意思；3.悬念、红鲱鱼和反转的设置巧妙，我脑子笨硬是没猜出凶手；4.以及最后一章怎么写得那么可爱！

评分###2020ReadingChallenge01AmateurDetective 核心诡计平淡了一点但整本书有种whimsical的机智。希望写成系列啊，新时代的watson和sherlock。
