review:
'My Purple Scented Novel' by Ian McEwan is pretty great short story of a crime that goes undetected.

A not so famous novelist is invited to take care of his more famous friend's home. While their, he learns of an unfinished novel, and devises a plan of literary deception that will change the fortunes of each man.

I really liked this tightly plotted story. It comes off a bit like a heist story in the execution. I liked that the story mentioned the literary crimes of Lee Israel, as I just saw the movie based on what she did.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Vintage, Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
