Mystery Game 3

Ok. No stiff this time.

We have a man writing a book and while he is writing the the last chapter, he receives a phone call.
After the phone call is over, he puts down his pen, pulls a cigarette lighter out of his pocket and torches the book.

You need to find out why the man destroys his own book.

Same as usual. Yes or No questions only.

Hope this will not be too easy as i ran out of known plots and had to make this one up myself.

NOTE This is a 3 part mystery. For anyone just joining part 1 is now resolved and part 2 has started on page 8 of this thread.

After just 2 mysteries you ran out of different ones?! I think that your "Greatest Mysteries book" was a rip-off.

Alright, here we go again!

Was the book a Biography?

No it wasn't.  

Btw those last 2 mystery games were related to me by a friend over 25 years ago, so i was always going to be out of ripped off material after those 2.

Hey, Dodd! Dimis said this:

I think that you misread sandal, when he meant a scandal as in scandalous.

This mystery looks tough, Dodd!

As for my question:

Was the book Fiction?

Not friction, but fiction...as in fictitious!)

To leo. If you mean was it a novel then No.  

BTW. I was playing with Dimis, but the answer to his question was no anyway.


To Shadowcaster. He could be but,its not relevant.
