Crooked Herring (Elsie & Ethelred 5)
L. C. Tyler
Ethelred Tressider, mid-list crime writer, is surprised when fellow author Henry Holiday unexpectedly turns up on his doorstep. He's even more surprised when Henry confesses that he may have committed murder while drunk on New Year's Eve. Though he has little recollection of the night, Henry fears he may have killed drinking companion and fellow crime writer Crispin Vynall, and asks Ethelred to discreetly make enquiries in order to discover the truth.

Praise
"Stylish... subtle and sly."
Booklist
"Wodehouse-like characters bring a touch of levity to a frankly serious set of circumstances, and the author, L C Tyler, pulls it off brilliantly."
Booksmonthly
"A clever plot, with lots of laughs along the way."
Daily Mail
"An entertaining read, a book that is as near as unputdownable as is physically and emotionally possible and a book that is not only infectious but humorous to boot."
