Hey Doc
Try to bring the logline down to 25-27 words. Other than that, Love it, nice work!
The fundamentals here are right. Clear stakes. Flawed protagonist. An interesting supporting character who has good reason to be supsicious of her. An interesting enigma: Copy-cating murders happening before any regular novel reader could know about them.
The only thing I would suggest is to add to the protagonist’s apparent meekness. Making her elderly or disabled, for example, to enhance the apparent preposterousness of her being the killer herself. (As well as to make it more difficult for her to directly confront and defeat her nemesis.)

Stranger than fiction meets murder mystery! I agree with Steven. It’s an intriguing premise with all the right elements, including character flaw, goal and stakes. But how do we keep it under 25 words? Here’s my take:
When the murders in her novels become a reality, a reclusive writer must prove her innocence by finding the killer.

Suspicious seems to be the wrong word and its not clear whether he is suspicious of her or if he is the suspicious one.
