The Writing Class: 1 (Amy Gallup) - Softcover

"A marvellous toy of a book, full of wry surprises and sly twists... Extremely clever and quite enjoyable." - Booklist"

Amy Gallup was a promising writer once. Now she teaches a writing workshop at the local university extension. As the semester begins, she gets a threatening phone call, and finds obscene threats in the students' peer evaluations. Then there is a murder and every one of the students is a suspect. The only clues are hidden in their writing, and she can solve the murder only by looking more closely at their work. Hilarious, vicious, and elegantly written, "The Writing Class" examines the desperation, perversion, and mania of the writing life through an unforgettable mystery story.
