Crooked Herring Summary

Crooked Herring by 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. As Ethelred and his trusty agent Elsie begin to investigate, they discover that Henry has been set up, and now all that remains is for them to find out why and, more importantly ...whodunnit?

Crooked Herring Reviews

'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' Milo's Rambles Blog 'This is a marvellous book. The dialogue is sparkling, witty and enormous fun... The mystery is solved and the ends are tied up satisfactorily but with a jaw-dropping surprise. Most highly recommended' Lizzie Hayes, Mystery People 'Gentle 'Herring' spoofs on the traditional British whodunit' Shotsmag '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
