The Twenty Year Death by Ariel S. Winter
Set across three decades, this gripping narrative unfolds through the lens of three distinct yet interconnected crime novels, each reflecting the style of a different iconic mystery writer. The story begins in 1931 with a chilling murder in a small French village, then shifts to 1941 Hollywood where a screenwriter's life spirals into chaos, and concludes in 1951 with a hard-boiled detective navigating the gritty streets of post-war America. As the mysteries unravel, a haunting portrait of a troubled marriage emerges, revealing the dark secrets and relentless passage of time that bind the characters together.
