My Review<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The premise is simple. A themed murder mystery week at reclusive author J. R. Alastor’s island home in Maine.<\/p>\n

Six crime writers have been invited to participate, and J.R.’s assistant, Mila, is in charge of organizing the event.<\/p>\n

This book had so many twists. When I thought I had discovered J.R.’s identity, another twist sent me back to square one.<\/p>\n

I love books that make it challenging to figure out whodunnit, and this is one such novel.<\/p>\n

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!<\/p>\n

About the Author<\/h2>\n

\"fatally<\/p>\n

ANDE PLIEGO began writing stories when she discovered she could actually wield her overactive imagination for good.<\/p>\n

A lover of stories with teeth, she writes books involving mind games, dark humour, general murder and mayhem, characters pushed to the edge of themselves, and most importantly, finding the hope in the dark.<\/p>\n

When not reading or writing, she can usually be found dabbling in art, scheming up her next trip, or making constant expeditions to the library.<\/p>\n

Born in Florida, raised in France, and having left footprints all over the globe, Ande is settled in the Pacific Northwest, USA, with her craftsman husband and little son.<\/p>\n
