Book Overview
Some stories are written in blood.
When struggling poet Daniel Mercer receives an invitation to an exclusive literary retreat at the remote Blackwater Hall, he knows he doesn't belong among the celebrated novelists, bestselling authors, and literary giants gathered there. He was invited by mistake. But desperate for validation and one last chance to feel like a real writer, he accepts.
Snow closes in around the isolated Victorian mansion as rivalries emerge, egos clash, and old grudges begin to surface. Then, during a violent storm and a sudden blackout, one of the guests is found brutally murdered in the library.
Trapped with no way to contact the outside world, the writers quickly discover that every person in Blackwater Hall has something to hide. Some have secrets worth protecting. Some have careers worth killing for.
And someone in the house is already planning the next chapter.
A darkly witty locked-room thriller about ambition, failure, jealousy, and the dangerous stories people tell about themselves, Murder at the Writers' Retreat is perfect for fans of The Guest List, Knives Out, and And Then There Were None.
Snowed in at a remote writers' retreat, a failed poet finds himself trapped with ambitious authors, deadly secrets, and a killer hiding among them.
