Six stars face a challenge that will push them to the limits of their abilities; physically, mentally and emotionally. None of them has written a work of fiction, but now they have the chance to win a publishing contract to write their very own murder mystery novel.
They will be mentored by one of the world's most successful crime fiction authors, Minette Walters. To prove themselves they will have to follow Minette's rules of crime writing and experience life on the front line of murder detection and show they have the skill and flair to pen a real page turner.
At the end of each episode the celebrity with the least potential will be gone for good.
This website will feature some exclusive writing tips from Minette Walters and daily video diaries from all of the celebrities. You can also read the daily writing challenges and see what Minette thought of them. The site will be updated each day following the BBC2 show.
