The Twist of a Knife

 

The Twist of a Knife by Anthony Horowitz
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This installment starts profoundly slow--so much about Horowitz's latest project: a play that is opening at London's West End after touring briefly. Slightly interesting to peek behind the scenes, especially from the writers point of view, but it drags on too long. It's made up for by a murder that points to only Anthony as the suspect, and the two detectives he antagonized in a previous instance are only too happy to pin it on him. Only Hawthorne can help him, but he doesn't seem to eager to clear him either. I figured out the ending only because the meta-verse Horowitz created tipped me off.
