Résumé

'So amazingly good, I could not put it down' Reader review ?????'An inventive and highly enjoyable murder mystery' Reader review ?????Will a game of Murder at a dinner party turn deadly?London 1892: Author Oscar Wilde has assembled friends and acquaintances for one of his Sunday Supper Clubs, among their number is his great friend and creator of Sherlock Holmes, Arthur Conan Doyle. Mid-way through the evening, a game is proposed: each guest must write down the name of the person they would most like to kill.
But soon, the fictional victims begin to die one-by-one in mysterious circumstances - in the order their names were drawn during the game. With growing horror, Wilde and Doyle realises that one of their guests must be the murderer. Trapped in a race against time, they must uncover the killer's identity before they can complete their final move... A wonderfully witty and addictive cosy historical mystery that presents the reader with an intricate puzzle to solve.
Perfect for fans of Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie and Richard Osman. Reader's are gripped by The Ring of Death: 'Crackles with wit, tension, mysteries, and is reminiscent (but dare I say better) than the Sherlock Holmes canon' Reader review ?????'Oscar Wilde is solving crimes while rubbing elbows with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle... What's not to like?' Reader review ?????'This book had everything I love in a story: historical detail, cleverness, wonderful conversational by-play...
BRAVO!' Reader review ?????
