He hasn't written anything new since his critically acclaimed novel debuted in 1922, and by 1927 Ernest Stringer is living in poverty with his artist lover in a drafty Greenwich Village flat when he meets Anthony Young, the prolific author of a bestselling mystery series. As regular patrons of the bohemian Romany Marie's Caf???, Ernest and Anthony strike up an unusual friendship. Four other authors join in their talks on the art of mystery writing. They call themselves The Murder Club.
