Described as And Then There Were None meets Yellowface, this is a compulsive debut from Evelyn Clarke – pen name for the powerhouse duo of VE Schwab and Cat Clarke. On a remote Scottish island, former home to the bestselling – and recently deceased – novelist Arthur Fletcher, six authors compete for the honour of finishing his unpublished final manuscript. But as the competition ramps up in this locked-door thriller, so does the body count – so just who is so willing to kill for acclaim? An atmospheric and tension-packed literary murder mystery, The Ending Writes Itself is also subtle commentary on the cutthroat nature of the publishing industry itself.
