A book tour becomes a real-life mystery

Eleanor Dash arrives in Italy ready to finish her latest Vacation Mysteries novel, but an attempt on the life of Connor Smith—the real-life man behind her fictional character—pulls her into investigating a crime. The tour brings her into contact with fellow authors, fans, a stalker, and an unexpected ex, while professional rivalries and old fractures surface among the people around her. The setup plays on the overlap between a crime writer’s fictional work and the danger unfolding beyond the page, with the Italian tour providing the backdrop for a mystery involving multiple suspects and murders.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers who enjoy mysteries with a woman sleuth at the center.

Ten days, eight suspects, six cities, five authors, three bodies . . . one trip to die for.

"Quick, captivating, and oh-so-much-fun! This delicious mystery is as spellbinding as Knives Out."--Elle Cosimano, New York Times bestselling author of the Finlay Donovan series

All that bestselling author Eleanor Dash wants is to get through her book tour in Italy and kill off her main character, Connor Smith, in the next in her Vacation Mysteries series--is that too much to ask?

Clearly it is, because when an attempt is made to kill the real Connor--the handsome but infuriating con man she got mixed up with ten years ago and now can't get out of her life--Eleanor's enlisted to help solve the case.

Contending with literary competitors, rabid fans, a stalker--and even her ex, Oliver, who turns up unexpectedly--theories are bandied about, and rivalries, rifts, and broken hearts are revealed. But who's really trying to get away with murder?

Every Time I Go on Vacation, Someone Dies is an irresistible and hilarious series debut from Catherine Mack, introducing bestselling fictional author Eleanor Dash on her Italian book tour where life starts to imitate the world in her books when she's caught up in a real-life murder mystery.
