Thank you to Thomas Nelson Fiction and NetGalley for this ALC in exchange for an honest review! ——— As an avid reader, the beginning of this story is like a dream come true: take a cruise with your favorite authors, attend their seminars, and spend your days with like-minded bookworms. However, behind the scenes, things are not as they seem. One of these larger than life writers has been murdered, and through countless mishaps, it is up to our protagonist to solve the case—all whilst working through some complicated, poorly-timed romantic feelings for the rogue friend who’s just re-entered her life. Everyone’s a suspect, but in the end…whodunnit? I had a blast with this story. The remaining authors are delightfully entertaining archetypes of the genres they write. Their personalities shined through Ferguson’s writing and gave the story an air of authenticity as we face the fact that those who spend their days in the worlds that they’ve created can be a rather odd bunch. Overall, what a funny, twisty, story that left me “without a clue” of what would happen next.
