Publisher’s Weekly says Daniel “lampoons everything from the overstuffed collector’s editions to the self-importance of critics and the self-interest of publishers and agents as he parades a growing list of suspects in Heidi’s demise. Daniel’s sharp, sardonic wit and insider’s view of book industry foibles are sure to make this bibliomystery a hit.” Locals alert – part of this novel is set in the courtyard of Dutton’s Brentwood..
