A riveting, dark, and layered thriller that cuts through the glamorous fa ade of the publishing world to expose the true cost of ambition.

Some stories are too dangerous to tell, especially when they're your own.

Addison Comstock is a literary icon, known for her bestselling crime novels, razor-sharp tongue, and relentless rise to the top. But behind her polished brand lies a ruthless past filled with secrets, betrayals, and broken lives-including those of the writers she's employed to ghostwrite her success.

When her longtime editor collapses and dies during a team retreat in Jamaica, what appears to be a medical emergency soon begins to feel like something far more sinister. Tensions rise, loyalties fray, and whispers of sabotage grow louder. Someone in Addison's inner circle has decided enough is enough, and truth is becoming stranger than fiction.

As the body count climbs and buried truths resurface, Addison is desperate to maintain control of her crumbling empire. But with accusations flying and her dirty past threatening to go public, even Addison begins to question who she can trust . . . and how far she's willing to go to protect her legacy.

Reviews for Murder by the Book

Praise for Flames of Wrath “A nail-biter. JL Campbell has written an immersive thriller that left me breathless. Can a good person commit a heinous act in the name of justice? This is the moral dilemma that confronts the reader: who to root for. Campbell’s lyrical prose throws the cunning plot twists into a sharp relief. You want to shield your eyes but can’t. Read it for yourself.” —Bisi Adjapon, author of Daughter in Exile “Campbell doesn’t pull her punches in this powerful, pulse-pounding thriller that makes you want to punish the perpetrators. You’re given that and more. Reading Flames of Wrath often seems like retribution fantasy come to life as relentless justice mysteriously visits those who have escaped it. You don’t want to miss this one.” —Damyanti Biswas, bestselling author of The Blue Mumbai
