Synopsis

Rare books expert Brooklyn Wainwright is invited to the fiftieth birthday party of her neighbor Suzie's aunt Grace. A retired founder of a major video game corporation, Grace is a larger-than-life character who's turned her Lake Tahoe mansion into a fun house. Part of the fun involves a seance, but after the lights flicker, one guest is dead, poisoned by a cocktail intended for Grace. It seems someone is determined to turn Grace's playful palatial estate into a house of horrors. Brooklyn suspects the key to the killer's identity may lie in the roman a clef Grace has written about her life. With Grace in great peril, 'must-read' takes on a whole new meaning, as Brooklyn tries to stop a murderer who's through playing around...

2.5 Stars Pretty average story. There was nothing remarkable about it nor was it really remember able. It was slow moving and I was a little happy when it was over. I hope the next in the series is better!......more

Goodreads review by Patrizia on January 03, 2019

4 stelle e mezza Questo è il classico mistero della stanza chiusa, solo che siamo in una mega-casa sommersa dalla neve. L'autrice è stata brava a far sì che più di una volta mi sono chiesta se avessi la soluzione giusta in mente, poi è venuto fuori che avevo, prima o dopo, "avvistato" le giuste rispo......more

Goodreads review by Ruth on April 12, 2014

I wanted so much to love this book. It had all the elements that make a perfect cozy mystery for me. A fun cast of characters (most a bit one-dimensional, but that's not unusual for cozies), a large and crazy house to explore, a locked-in murder where everyone is trapped and held in suspicion, and a......more
