Reseña del libro "Blood Typed (en Inglés)"

An uproarious and satirical contemporary mystery set in Nova Scotia's author community from the author of Fishnets & Fantasties. Welcome to the NOVA Prize gala dinner, where one Nova Scotian author will go home with the $100,000 grand prize?unless they don't go home at all... Val Jenkins is stuck. A journalist for the Halifax Post, she's been writing a local books column for over a decade. But ever since she was a precocious Nancy Drew wannabe, she's longed to cover the crime beat. When the gala ceremony approaches for the annual NOVA Prize, one of the most prestigious literary awards in Canada, Val anticipates more of the same old thing: authors in various interpretations of "formal" wear, hiding their simmering jealousies while dreaming of the life-changing prize money. But this year, something happens that no one could have expected. Murder. The off-beat cast of shortlisted authors each has their own secrets and grudges to hide: the well-published romance writer Sonya King, whom readers will recognize from Fishnets & Fantasies; Victor Comeau, a narcissistic professor with delusions of grandeur; Sally MacPhee, a terminally ill writer who just wants to add "award-winning" to her bio; and Alexander Fitzgerald, a literary darling who has the Canada Revenue Agency on his back. Rounding out the cast are an embittered editor with dreams of authorship, an octogenarian bookie with indigestion, a pair of homicide detectives hot on the case, and one nosy historical portrait. Marking the first in the raucous new Val Jenkins series, Blood Typed is an uproarious satire of literary culture, and a uniquely Canadian mystery.
