Podcast co-hosts Raspy Fuse and Salty Remarks receive an anonymous text: one of the three author guests you plan to interview Tuesday night intends to kill you both.

At first, the co-hosts think the text is a joke.

Why would egotistical poet William Z. Wisp, sexy romance author Della Molasses, or tightly wound thriller writer Edwin Nocturne want to kill them? Raspy and Salty have never met the scribblers.

The co-hosts approach their killer interviews as a fun adventure until they learn another literary podcaster died mysteriously when she interviewed the authors and a psychologist specializing in writer therapy has been treating the writers for mental health issues. Worse yet, the co-hosts discover suspicious ties between the authors and disgruntled members of their own podcast team, doubling the suspect list.

Raspy and Salty decide to tap into their experience reading and writing mysteries to identify their would-be murderer and unravel the plot before it’s too late. If they can’t, their sense of humor and wordplay will be all they have left to avoid death by podcasting.
