I liked this book but I also thought that there was to much emphsis on the ratial thing.

When a mystery writer cries bloody murder, and everyone blames her overactive imagination...

Thriller scrbe Sophie Katz is a hard-boiled as a woman who drinks Grande Caramel Brownie Frappuccinos can be. So Sophie knows it's not paranoia or post-divorce, living-alone-again jutters when she becomes convinced that a crazed reader is sneaking into her apartment to reenact scenes from her books. The police, however, can't tell a good plot from an unmarked grave.

When a filmmaker friend is brutally murdered in the manner of a death scene in one of his movies, Sophie becomes coonvinced that a copycat killer is on the loose--and that she's the target. If she doesn't solve the mystery, her own bestseller will spell out her doom, Cursing her grisly imagination (why, oh , why did she have to pick the ax?), Sophie engages in some real-life gumshoe tactics. The man who swoops in to save her is mysterious new love interst Anatoly Darinsky. Of course, if this were fiction Anatoly would be her prime suspect....
