I asked all three of them. I could see Cain smiling down at me with pride. “Well, novels would be great. That’s a good starting point for any beginner,” the first man said. “I agree, and you could make picks from romance, mystery and thrillers, and even historical fiction,” the second man responded. “We have a list of the top bestselling authors. You will be glued to every book you select,” the third one said. I became relaxed almost immediately, but then again, Cain’s phone beeped.

These actions cannot be explained, Navpreet,’ said the inspector gloomily, casting an eye on the mountains. The sub-inspector gave a stiff nod and carefully studied the inspector who seemed to be lost in contemplation. ‘From what I have seen, murders are of two types,’ said the inspector, the tips of his fingers coming together. ‘First are the unplanned ones, committed by people who were suffocated in some way by the acts of the would-be victims. When they see an opportunity, their fear is eclipsed by the pain they have suffered and they strike.’

So I stayed in my little hidden room, surrounded by old furniture and boxes of memories that belonged to someone else, and I worked on my other secret. Because being the Miracle Doctor wasn't the only thing I did with my free time. I was also a writer. Lyra St. James, the name on the covers of my books, which currently occupied spots three, seven, and twelve on the New York Times bestseller list. Psychological thrillers, the sort with twists that made people stay up way too late reading and then complain about being tired at work the next day. My editor loved me because I delivered early and never caused drama. My readers loved me because I wrote books that made them feel things. My publishe

Emily turned her laptop screen toward me. "We just received an anonymous email. It claims you're a novelist, and that you wrote a book where a CEO led an office bullying campaign that drove three women to suicide. The company in your novel uses the same initials as ours. A few years back, that triggered a PR crisis for us and tanked our stock." "The company is taking this very seriously. Is there anything you'd like to explain?" "I never wrote anything like that. I write romance novels. The author of that thriller is the very famous mystery writer J. Nova—it was one of his earlier works, not many people have read it."

It was a nightmare anyway he thought about it. I didn't even want to imagine if it was me who died. Impossible. If he had come this far, he could continue to survive. Surely G wouldn't even show up, Hunter even less so. Plus it could always alert them in some way. He wasn't going to let anyone get killed. I would have to be more cunning than usual and try to make the lies come out more natural. Now what? I sighed and covered my face with a pillow. These things shouldn't happen to a writer. If he ever left this life once and for all, he would publish a book: How to Survive the Mafia.

He obviously loved thrillers as most of the books were made up with novels by Ian Fleming, Desmond Bagley, Hammond Innes, Ian Rankin, Michael Robotham and Alistair MacLean. My mobile sounded and I moved out on to the landing. Caller ID: Kimberley. “Hello, darling,” I said into the phone. “I need a drink,” she explained. “Bad morning?” “Ever since that break-in you investigated, Bio-Preparations insist on having an audit every month,” she said breathlessly. “Why have they got to have it on a bloody Saturday?” “You poor thing,” I said soothingly, feeling partially responsible. “So how about the Waggoner’s Rest?” She persisted. “I’ve just arrived back at the quay.”

“I don’t know,” she said. “Do you like to read? I blog about books, specifically horror and thriller books.” “Like Stephen King?” She nodded. “Stephen King, Dean Koontz, David W. Wright, Sean Platt, and, ah, Dan Wells.” He nodded slowly as she listed her favorite authors. “What about A. A. Abernathy?” Fuck! “You read Abernathy?” “Yeah, I just picked up the latest one. It’s pretty good so far.”

Fabio said, his voice terrifyingly calm as he swirled his drink. “Only if the threats don’t work first,” Silvio added with a casual shrug. “And if we’re feeling lazy, there’s always blackmail,” Ciejill chimed in, snatching an eighth pastry from the tray. Liza leaned back, shaking her head as she took in the room, the writers, the hitters, and the strange, blurring lines between them. “Note to self,” she whispered loudly. “Writers and professional killers share the same taste in wine. Good to know.”
