Disclosure: I got sent a free copy of this book via Net Galley. Pub Date 04 Sep 2018
How do you stop a murder that’s already happened?
The Hardcastle family is hosting a masquerade at their home, and their daughter Evelyn Hardcastle will die. She will die everyday until Aiden Bishop is able identify her killer and break the cycle.
But every time the day begins again, Aiden wakes up each day in a different body as one of the guests.
Aiden’s only escape is to solve Evelyn Hardcastle’s murder and conquer the shadows of an enemy he struggles to even comprehend. But nothing and no one are quite what they seem.
Deeply atmospheric and ingeniously plotted, The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is a highly original debut that's an Agatha Christie mystery in a Groundhog Day Loop, with a bit of Quantum Leap to it. Perfect for fans of Kate Atkinson and Claire North.

Great review for a great book. I read it earlier in the year. I do wonder why it is called 7 deaths in UK and 7 1/2 in other countries.
ReplyDeleteI wondered that too. The covers are also exactly alike too. I'm still thinking about the 1/2 and what it could stand for.
DeleteThis book sounds fabulous!!! It sounds like one of those murder mystery party games in book form!
ReplyDeleteIt is in a way except the same person gets to play different characters. It's so good!
DeleteThis sounds tasty - I wants it!
