is finished
Done! Part of the delay arose from my realization that, as much as I LOVE the stranded-house-party-with-a-killer-on-the-loose trope, in such a scenario Police Chief Jack could not believably be stranded with everyone else. My fear was that readers were not going to enjoy a book where Ellery and Jack weren't physically together and that really froze me for a time (HA -no pun intended).

Unfortunately, this has not been a great summer for writing. However, the book is still happening. I can't give an actual date, and there will not be preorders. But I'm still working on it and it will be the next thing I publish.

It seemed some things never changed.
"You know, it’s not like I’ve forgotten we did The Cat and the Canary at Tisch.”
Flip, Tosh, Lenny, and Chelsea all looked at each other.
Ellery sighed. “Uncle Cyrus dies and leaves his estate to his niece Annabelle with the stipulation she has to spend the night in the creepy family mansion. I KNOW you remember. Flip was the Cat and Noah played Uncle Cyrus.”
Noah. Wow.

Granted, they're actually together about as much as in any other book in the series, but it doesn't feel like it because of the stress on how cut off they are from each other. 😄

Oh my gosh!! You finished the book?? Aw, I can't WAIT to read it!! And to me every book in the series is amazing! The plot and what's happening is the most intriguing part, Ellery and Jack's romance is just the cream on top ❤️ I adore this series so much - probably my favorite book series, and also the only crime/amateur sleuth series I truly love.
Thank you for giving the series so much attention and working so hard to make it the best you can so you can feel comfortable sharing it! I love your imagination so much!
Again, thank you!! ❤️
P.s. do you know if Matt Haynes will be voicing this book too?

I'm happy to report that Matt is getting prepped to record even as I type this. :-)
I'm literally squealing! I'm so excited! Thank you for answering!! Gosh, it's hard to wait the last stretch! 😍🤩
