Publisher's Summary:

For lecturer Sophie Rivers a writing course on the outskirts of Birmingham is a bit of a busmans holiday. Still, creative inspiration might strike. But then, knowing Sophies luck, so might a murderer. She can hardly believe it when a fellow student is found dead in her room. And when a course tutor goes missing, its clear that one of the students might be interested in death as a reality rather than a literary concept. But who is responsible? Sophie cant control her investigative instincts, especially when she herself becomes a victim.

Dying to Write (A Sophie Rivers Mystery)

This is the second book in the Sophie Rivers mystery series. Sophie, a college lecturer, has won a prize of a creative writing course. The course is being held at a mansion just outside Birmingham and it seems to be jinxed from the start when one of the tutors is ill and one of the students is co-opted to take his place.

Sophie realises very quickly that the people attending the course are a very ill-assorted group - ranging from elderly to relatively young and from all walks of life. It is clear that some of them have met in other situations and are not at all at ease with each other.

When the resident nymphomaniac is found dead Sophie comes into contact with Chris Groom - the investigating officer - who is rather too fond of Sophie for her liking. This is an exciting mystery with a satisfyingly complex plot which includes a pet rat called Sidney, a missing tutor and a very glamorous poet - not to speak of some Japanese tourists who seem to very much in the wrong place at the wrong time. There are some nail biting happenings at various points in the story and it is touch and go whether everyone is going to come out of it in one piece.

The book kept me reading because I cared about the characters - even Sidney - and I wanted to find out what happened and what was behind the mayhem. There are many touches of humour and Sophie is very far from being a perfect character which makes her all the more likeable.

Whodunnit? Judith Cutler's done it again!

Birmingham England is the city where Judith Cutler lives and writes and Birmingham is the venue for her crime novels. You can almost smell the sweat and grime of England's second largest city as the action hurries along the streets.

In Dying To Write, her heroine Sophie Rivers (lecturer by profession and sleuth by obligation) finds herself once again in the middle of the action sticking her nose into another murder case, upsetting the local police and falling foul of the baddies. Plot twists, red herrings and a final resolution that will have you panting with relief, this is crime fiction at its best.

And Judith should know as the secretary of the British crime writers association! Judith writes compelling fiction that just demands to be read. I have never read any of her books in over forty eight hours as I simply cannot put them down. Buy, sit down and enjoy a fast paced, page turning ride through a murder mystery. You won't be disappointed!

Second in the Sophie Rivers Amateur Sleuth Series
