3.18.2024 - The Mystery Writer

The Mystery Writer by Sulari Gentill 

Many thanks to NetGalley, Poisoned Pen Press, and Dreamscape Media for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of the latest book by Sulari Gentill, with the audiobook narrated by Katherine Littrell - 4 stars!

Theo has dropped out of college, determined to be a writer instead of an attorney as was the planned path for her.  She shows up on the doorstep of her brother, Gus, hoping that he will support her.  She begins writing in a cafe and meets a famous author.  They slowly begin a relationship but then she finds him brutally murdered right after signing on with a prestigious agency.  And now she is considered a suspect - until they start looking at Gus.  Enter Mac, Gus' friend and a private investigator, who comes from a family of conspiracy theorists.  

There's a lot to unpack in this book!  There is mixed media in the form of message boards between the theorists, which I always enjoy, but had me confused in the beginning.  The author has once again created an intriguing storyline, even though there were times I was yelling at Theo to open her eyes!  Kept me on my toes until the end.
