ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz is a metafictional mystery where literary editor Susan Ryeland receives an unfinished manuscript of a whodunnit novel. The author, Alan Conway, is found dead, and the final chapters of his book are missing. Susan investigates, blurring the line between fiction and reality.

Set in the English countryside, the story draws on classic detective fiction elements. Susan uncovers secrets, hidden messages, and literary games. As she searches for the missing chapters, she begins to suspect that Conway's death was not accidental. The investigation leads her to a complex web of deceit, resentment, and ambition within the publishing world and a quaint English village.
