Description
To catch a killer, one must act the part.
Famed for playing Sherlock Holmes on screen, ageing actor Ormond Basil finds himself caught up in a murder mystery that would test the skills of the famed detective himself. When those around him push him to take up the deerstalker mantle for real, he accepts the leading man role.
With Paco, a jaded writer of pulp detective fiction, he has his very own Watson at his side. Surely their combined encyclopaedic knowledge of plots and killers means that this case ought to be elementary?
Translated by the International Booker Prize-shortlisted Frances Riddle
