The Busy Body

The Busy Body

Knives Out meets Richard Osman in this brilliantly inventive, witty and satisfying mystery in the timeless tradition of Agatha Christie, as a nameless ghostwriter heroine collaborates with her subject to solve a murder.

“A gripping and highly entertaining mystery, with ingenuity and flair aplenty, and a wonderful detective character that readers will be dying to meet again.”
—Sophie Hannah, New York Times bestselling author of Hercule Poirot’s Silent Night


The Decent Proposal

The Decent Proposal

An addictively readable romantic comedy, drama, and mystery rolled into one, about two very different strangers whose lives become intertwined when they receive an unusual proposition. The Decent Proposal is a funny, tender, and enchanting story about love, attraction, and friendship: Jane Austen in Los Angeles.

“As clever as it is hopeful…Kemper Donovan’s voice is original, captivating, and assured. This book is both a moving love letter to Los Angeles and a thoughtful rumination on what people can mean to one another.”
—Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Daisy Jones and the Six and Carrie Soto Is Back
