Crooked Herring

When a man who really doesn't look the part tells hapless mystery author Ethelred Tressider that he may have killed someone, and there is actually not even a body, Ethelred is inclined to laugh the matter off. But the man in question is a successful mystery writer, and with Ethelred's sales none too hot, his agent Elsie think perhaps Ethelred should put in an effort for the reviews.
