Sleuth Slayer

Americas leading mystery writers are being brutally murdered. Third-tier author Guy Davitt a would-be Dashiell Hammett stumbles upon the killer s bizarre M.O. (the deaths are lifted from mystery novels). But Davitt cannot convince deeply skeptical police a Sleuth Slayer actually exists.

Through a dark labyrinth of film studio power brokers, publishing industry politics, a decadent family's wealthy influence, police immorality as well as the dawning realization that he himself is on the killers list Davitt pursues the truth.

Cleverly penned by a father and son writing team.
