As the sole heir of the Remington fortune, Vonnette Remington adapted a lifestyle typical of a 'trust fund Bohemian' tucked away in the northwest corner of Massachusetts. Vonnette Remington had six best selling romance novels to her credit in as many years. She was at the pinnacle of her writing career, garnishing her literary success by authoring Harlequin-type novels. When she submits her tell-all autobiography, entitled Under the Willor Tree, to her publisher, she faces ill-fated retribution resulting in lethal consequences. Her sudden death sends shock waves throughout the small community. Lead investigator, Lt. Gerald Mitchell of the Massachusetts State Police task force, asks Remington's publisher who might have had reason to kill the famous writer. As he replies, the publisher slams the manuscript on his desk. "Take your pick officer, Vonnette had a way of pissing off a lot of people." Under the Willow Tree becomes a virtual directory of suspects, each chapter exposes illicit affairs and indiscrete escapades identifying prominent members of the small community. Rumors infiltrate the town of Lenox, MA creating fear of what may be included between the pages. Careers and reputations are at risk if the seedy tell-all book were to be published. The Manuscript is a compelling search for a killer. The author invites the reader to join in the intense investigation as the clues and evidence systematically unfold. The Manuscript is an energy packed novel that shares all the evidence and challenges the amateur sleuth to arrive at an independent conclusion to solve the case. Suprising details are guaranteed to captivate the most discriminating murder mystery fan.
