About the Author
I never imagined for one second that I would ever have a book - any book, let alone a crime novel - published for the simple reason that I am seriously lacking in education. I only went to school for three years, and until recently I had an inferiority complex about this. Now I feel like saying Listen, if I can do it - and I've had ten books published - anybody can!
From Booklist
Business and pleasure bring Londoner Lee Bartholomew to the Hamptons in McIntyre's frothy follow-up to How to Seduce a Ghost (2005). Lee, a ghostwriter, is slated to serve as maid of honor at her mother's commitment ceremony to Phil (a man so rich Lee has dubbed him the Phillionaire) and interview aging British rocker Shotgun Marriott, a guest at the affair. Shortly after her arrival, two suspicious deaths wreak havoc with Lee's plans: Shotgun's estranged son, Sean, washes up on the shore (in a wedding dress, no less) and the body of rival ghostwriter Bettina Pleshette is found, pierced with an arrow, in the nearby woods. Bettina, it turns out, had already secured a deal to pen the story of Shotgun's life. Lee (imagine Bridget Jones, but without the food and cigarette addictions) sets her mind to solving the murders as she takes over the writing of Shotgun's biography. Though the mystery here is fairly lightweight stuff, the pseudonymous McIntyre vividly portrays the East End of Long Island and the eccentric characters who live there, any one of whom might be capable of murder.
