When he arrives, he begins to understand that it is not a monastery at all and eventually realizes in time that there is no escape! When he learns of his plight, he fights to find a way to escape, if there is one, and begins a dangerous game exacerbated by not knowing who is friend or foe. While in the monastery, or whatever it is, he writes a novel about a British detective: Sunday is a brilliant detective. He isn't Sherlock Holmes, Inspector Morse or Hercules Poirot. He needs others to fill in the blanks for him sometimes. His drug addiction is a major hindrance to his skills and his failed marriage has hampered his career. But he always seems to find a way, or a person, to lead him to the truth, to find the "anonymous author of death" and solve the case in the end.This is the debut of Nick Sunday, a detective invented by an author named Ian Llewellyn. Or is Ian the invention of Detective Sunday? As the writer and detective begin to blend until they become one, is it a wonder that perhaps they were both invented by an even higher power?
