Summary:
Jon Arryn, revered and respected Hand of the King, is dead. Though many assume his death to be of natural age, others have suspicions... including his widow, Lady Lysa, who is determined to make up for her strange grief-induced amnesia by being the best damn detective King's Landing has ever seen. With her flair for dramatics, regrettable habit of jumping to wild conclusions, and questionable disregard for law enforcement, what could go wrong? Anything and everything, as it turns out.
Reccer's Note: This fic draws off of the trope of self inserts, where the author's personality is inserted into a character within a story to create some changes. Bigger Fish to Fry is relatively unique among SI stories where this is used as a way to examine Lysa Arryn's position within canon with more sympathy than she usually gets from the fanbase. It has a very funny character voice and entertaining plot.
