The Lazarus Widow | |
 | Until a few days before his death, Bill Knox had been hard at work on the manuscript for The Lazarus Widow. The story - which he regarded as one of his best - was advanced but incomplete. Bill's method of writing was to polish each chapter before writing the next. The only clues to his intended resolution of the story were a few enigmatic notes and three press clippings. So Bill left a conundrum to match the best of his fictional puzzles.
'Martin was asked by Bill's widow and his publishers to complete the book - a privilege and a responsibility. And one of the most fascinating challenges of his writing career. And the challenge to those who read it is - can you tell where Bill's work ends and Martin's begins? 'It is a daunting task finishing the final novel of the late crime novelist Bill Knox, but Martin Edwards has triumphantly completed the 25th Detective Inspector Thane novel, The Lazarus Widow. Edwards is a considerable crime writer himself (The First Cut Is The Deepest), so the combination of the two writers is unbeatable.' |
