{"product_id":"eighth-detective","title":"Eighth Detective","description":"A New York Times Top Ten Thriller of the Year\n\n\"One of the most innovative mysteries in recent memory.\" - The Wall Street Journal\n\nFrom the author of Ink Ribbon Red, Alex Pavesi's debut is a love letter to classic detective stories with a modern twist, proof that the best mysteries break all the rules.\n\nThere are rules for murder mysteries. There must be a victim. A suspect. A detective.\n\nGrant McAllister, a professor of mathematics, once sat down and worked all the rules out – and wrote seven perfect detective stories to demonstrate. But that was thirty years ago. Now Grant lives in seclusion on a remote Mediterranean island, counting the rest of his days.\n\nUntil Julia Hart, a brilliant, ambitious editor knocks on his door. Julia wishes to republish his book, and together they must revisit those old stories: an author hiding from his past and an editor keen to understand it.\n\nBut there are things in the stories that don’t add up. Inconsistencies left by Grant that a sharp-eyed editor begins to suspect are more than mistakes. They may be clues, and Julia finds herself with a mystery of her own to solve.\n\n\"Dizzying, dazzling… When did you last read a genuinely original thriller? The wait is over.\"―A.J.
