Just the title of the book – You are Fatally Invited – sparked me to take part in this tour.
Blurb
Six thriller authors. One writing retreat.
You’d die to be on the guest list . . .
The Host
Legendary mystery author J. R. Alastor’s books are sold all over the world, but no one knows his real name. After years hiding in the shadows, he has sent out six invitations to an exclusive murder mystery retreat on his private island.
The Assistant
Mila del Angél has been hired to ensure the week runs smoothly. She has yearned for revenge on a ghost from her past for years – and this could be her chance to get it.
The Players
The six bestselling thriller writers accept their invitations without question – it’s an opportunity any author would kill for.
The Game
What should have been a week of trope-filled games takes a sinister turn when one guest is found dead, and the others find themselves in the midst of a nightmare drawn from Alastor’s dark imagination. They may have written thrillers – but now they and Mila must survive one…
My Review
The premise is simple. A themed murder mystery week at reclusive author J. R. Alastor’s island home in Maine.
Six crime writers have been invited to participate, and J.R.’s assistant, Mila, is in charge of organizing the event.
This book had so many twists. When I thought I had discovered J.R.’s identity, another twist sent me back to square one.
I love books that make it challenging to figure out whodunnit, and this is one such novel.
I should also say that this is the first book by Ande Pliego I’ve read, but she’s found a new fan in me!

Once in a while, you need to read a book that pushes you out of your comfort zone. For me, this was that book.
