It happens the day after the real Hawthorne and his hopeless assistant have visited the set. And now Hawthorne has no choice. He has to investigate his own murder. Is it possible that Hawthorne made the biggest mistake of his career and arrested the wrong man? And is it now time for him to pay the price?The sixth book in the Hawthorne series is a wild ride through a world that the author knows only too well.
