About the book: 2003 / Writers are not like mere mortals, and the authors of romance novels are completely unusual people. It is not easy to sing of love, passion and jealousy day after day, but the fees are worth the effort. Having heard about a writers' conference, the tongue-in-cheek and sarcastic librarian Jacqueline Kirby decides to take a little break from her boring university life. And the passions at the “love” conference are indeed raging in earnest: a famous journalist who threatened to expose all the authors of famous bestsellers was killed. The murder is arranged so cunningly and subtly that only a non-standard approach can bring results. And Jacqueline, thoroughly enjoying the role of a detective, gets down to business; in the course of her unusual investigation, she learns a lot of interesting things. In particular, Jacqueline finds out that writing a bestseller is easy, at least for her, and therefore, having caught the killer, she can diversify the measured life on the university campus with sultry passions, albeit fictitious ones. And at the same time get a little richer. But that comes later, first you need to solve the crime, since the police cannot do without the help of the wise Jacqueline.
