I am guessing the real author is Stephen J Cannell, an excellent writer who you might remember from Rockford Files or The A-Team or several other shows. Three reasons.
1. He also was quoted on the version of the cover I saw.
2. He has had a cameo part in the first episode of both seasons.
3. He usually writes one Shane Scully book and one standalone a year and releases the standalone in January. This year no standalone.
I think they do not intend to tell us who the author is until the end of the series, if then. This is really an ingenious idea! The first season consisted of Castle researching a book and then an actual book was released last month. How cool is that?
