Don't Go Home

The murder of a Southern literary icon sends Annie Darling's seaside town spinning in New York Times bestselling author Carolyn Hart's 25th Death on Demand Mystery. . .

Bookstore owner Annie Darling is hosting a party to celebrate former Broward's Rock resident Alex Griffith and his bestselling new novel, Don't Go Home. But after the local paper announces that Griffith aims to reveal the real-life inspirations behind his characters, perhaps the author should take his own advice. Not everyone in town is ready to give him a glowing review.

As Annie attempts damage control, her friend Marian Kenyon gets in a heated argument with Griffith. It's a fight Annie won't soon forget-especially after the author turns up dead.

Despite an array of suspects to match Griffith's cast of characters-and a promise to her husband, Max, to steer clear of sleuthing-Annie's not about to let the police throw the book at her friend when the real killer remains at large. . .
