This was a really entertaining read. I'm not sure which genre it slots into but this is certainly not a negative. A whodunnit combined with great humour and romance, constructed around the very real, sometimes chilling world that is on-line networking.A handful of struggling authors, and a site designed to encourage oneupmanship to dangerous levels, provides a great background to the action. Seabee and Annika, both unhappy in their respective relationships, find themselves not only fighting for that elusive publishing deal, but chasing a murder trail too. There's romance, thrills and mystery, and as the story builds to the denouement, a great country house atmosphere.I enjoyed the characters, especially Sick Boy the labrador, and some of Seabee's narrative had me in stitches. It's a lively book, the plot held my interest throughout and I related to the on-line author group very much, so my enjoyment was complete.
