description: When mystery author Maggie Kelly pops across the pond for a movie shoot--accompanied by her once-fictional, now all-too-real (not to mention sexy) hero, Alexandre, Viscount Saint Just--she's in for a jolly good time . . .We are not amused. . .Don't get me wrong--there was plenty to laugh about when we first arrived in Merry Olde England to watch one of my novels being shot as a TV movie. Alex was delighted with the location (a seventeeth-century manor house), but horrified with the surfer-dude mimbo playing him. I, personally, found the situation hilarious. . .until the scriptwriter showed up. Dead.Lights, camera. . .action! No, not that kind of action. Hmmmm . . . on second thought. . .Okay, so things are suddenly getting hot and heavy between Alex and me--and our timing is atrocious as usual, what with the murder and mayhem. Suspects? Don't get me started. There's Mr. Contemptuous Director, Ms. Man-Crazy Production Assistant, Mr. Fancy Pants English Actor, Ms. Diva Leading Lady, and. . .yours truly. Yep, I was seen arguing with the victim right before his unfortunate demise, so I am, as the Brits would say, in a bit of a pickle. . ."Light and funny, Michaels's latest should please her many fans."-- Publishers Weekly"Michaels's trademark wit and humor abound . . . Another outstanding mystery with a unique cast of characters."-- BooklistKasey Michaels is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of more than ninety books, ranging from historical to contemporary romance.
