Susie Dent, acclaimed lexicographer and etymologist is poised to thrill us with a mystery set at the heart of the Clarendon English Dictionary, where a series of anonymous letters challenges its team of lexicographers to unravel a thread of linguistic clues. Hinting at secret lives and a personal link to one of the editors, the letters could lead to the truth behind a decades-old disappearance and an untold chapter in the evolution of English. Drawing on Susie’s wonderful linguistic skills Guilty by Definition is certain to scintillate and entertain.

This is Susie’s first novel but fans will not be surprised that the novel includes the secret lives of everyday words, all woven seamlessly into an intriguing plot of a mystery that has lingered for years.
