Why read it?

1 author picked Close to Death as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Well, it's Horowitz so what more is there to say? His Moonflower Murders are good, but I like his Hawthorne mysteries more. They're so sly. Horowitz writes himself into the story as a rather dense protagonist author and then proceeds to mix fact and fiction as his main detective Hawthorne takes over the solution to a murder mystery. Through it all, the author is having us on. Clever writing but solid plot, and all really fun.
