In her fifth and most heartwrenching mystery yet, Ghostwriter Roxy Parker is hot on the trail of her estranged boyfriend Max. He's disappeared from a Swiss alpine resort and his flatmate has shown up murdered in Berlin, bludgeoned by his 1920's Gibson guitar. The German police suspect Max of murder but Roxy knows better. He's just sent her a cryptic text message, which proves his life is on the line!

At the behest of his family, Roxy packs her bags and heads to the Continent, Max's self-absorbed sister Caroline by her side. Together, they must follow a series of tantalising clues that take them from the heights of Mt Pilatus to the craggy shoreline of the Italian Riviera where the perky blonde has just shown up dead, floating in the azure Mediterranean Sea. But where is Max? Why is everyone around him being killed? And can Roxy solve the mystery of his disappearance before he vanishes for good?

In the latest Ghostwriter Mystery, author C.A. Larmer proves yet again why she's one of Australia's most popular and well-read crime writers. Fasten your seatbelts and come along for the ride!
