Every Time I Go on Vacation, Someone Dies (The Vacation Mysteries #1)

Brigid says: The cover may look light and breezy but a delightfully layered puzzle of a story lies inside.​​ I was immediately hooked into this creative tale by the witty and cynical footnotes provided by famous author Eleanor Dash. While on the tenth anniversary tour for her popular “Vacation Mystery” series, Eleanor is quickly drawn into mysterious happenings that seem targeted to kill her ex-boyfriend and star of her books, Connor Smith. (It doesn’t help that she was actually thinking of offing him herself.) This first in a series is full of beautiful locations and rollicking twists. Some of the action takes a bit of time to really get going but the ending is worth the slow build. I’m looking forward to reading more of Eleanor’s adventures and hoping she keeps providing her hilarious footnotes.
