The Ankh Murders is a funny, witty and suspenseful murder mystery.

      A murder-mystery about handsome New York fashion photographer Jonathan Winner accused of diabolical murder of young women and bungling NYPD cops in hot pursuit on his trail. Tony De Marco, the colorful reporter-about-town who likes to spill his crazy theories about serial killers on late-night TV, suspects Winner. But he also wants to make a book deal to exploit the publicity that surrounds the case. Winner's neglected, alcoholic wife Pauline also joins the fray; she secretly makes a deal with Kathleen, the very rich heiress Jonathan wants to marry, agreeing to divorce Jack for a million bucks so that their planned wedding can take place. As reported in the tabloids, Jonathan Winner easily gets away with apparently cruel murders in spite of the law, formidable enemies and a very hostile press.  The Ankh Murders is a funny, runaway cliffhanger from the first click of Jack's camera to his last as he's about to sail into the sunset with his filthy-rich new wife – until she discovers his diabolical secret.
