Prepare for a literary whodunit like no other! When the notoriously unpleasant book editor Herman Mildew is found murdered, the guest list for his last party becomes a suspect list of epic proportions. Over eighty of your favorite young adult and children's authors, from Jon Scieszka to John Green, find themselves under the magnifying glass. Each author must provide an alibi, but there's a catch: every single one of them is a fabulist, a storyteller with something to hide. Dive into this star-studded anthology where every alibi is a twisted tale, and the truth is buried under layers of creative deception. Can you piece together the clues from these unreliable narrators and figure out who finally silenced the cantankerous Mildew? This collection of short, intriguing mysteries offers a unique challenge, blending humor and suspense as you try to solve the ultimate literary puzzle.
