Imagine an author in her prime and she wants to retire. Easy it seems. Except writing is in her blood.

Literary licence follows the fortunes of Ursula Drewsbury as she discovers retirement is more than gardening and cups of tea. She creates a pseudonym only to discover he is larger than life and her ego is piqued. So what to do? Killing him off would be easy for the best crime and mystery writer. Or is it?

Ursula is beset by more than a passing problem as she tries to kill her pseudonym 'Lloyd Langton' and escape the law and the paparazzi. Her postman, a rather large Russia just complicated an already farcical situation be being hopelessly in love with her.

Her problems compound as an imposter turns up purporting to be her Lloyd Langton and it takes more than a bit of wheeling and dealing, plotting, conniving and smooth talking for Ursula Drewsbury to come out smelling like a rose, with the help of the impostor, a postman, a savvy reporter and a 10,000 pound reward.
