Launching a new series, a washed-up script editor solves cold murders and bitter rivalries at a geekdom convention in this love letter to Doctor Who, Star Trek and classic TV science fiction. Perfect for fans of of sharp-witted amateur detective crime such as Richard Osman, J. M. Hall and Andrew Cartmel.
Toby Welliver is a professional fan and expert on cult television, as well as author of 12 little-read biographies about obscure TV celebrities and host of the podcast ‘The First Cult is the Deepest’. He’s also beginning to realise he was late to the party, and the glory days he treasures are already history.
Invited to contribute to a ‘Then and Now’ documentary being filmed in the same location as the show all those years ago, Toby gathers with cast and crew from the show, all gathering for another paycheck on their past triumphs.
And as Toby enters a world of hatchets far from buried, internecine warfare and virulent grudges his research into the show uncovers the unexplained death of a young woman during filming. Only 5 people were present at her death, all of them with Toby. And there’s only 3 days of filming left…
Hell hath no fury like a nerd scorned - expect top-drawer farce, dead pan gags and the finest puns known to mankind.

Definitely sounds like the "Ed Reardon solves crimes" concept we've seen with Mervyn Stone; will be interesting to see how this series published by Titan compares to the series published before by BF.
