A Quiet Retreat

You are cordially invited to visit the new Black Hills Manor Writing Retreat.


That's how it all begins-with a simple invitation.


For five authors, it's meant to be the start of a restful week, filled with free food, drinks, and likeminded company.

But shortly after their arrival, things take an unsettling turn.


Broken property, missing items, and strange noises are just some of the odd occurrences that have each member questioning their companions. As suspicions mount, the authors are pitted against each other.


Whom can they trust in a house full of strangers?


With tensions rising, the writers find themselves in the middle of their own mystery. Death, terror, and despair are common elements in their books, but at Black Hills Manor, the murders being plotted are their own.

This one had all the elements I’ve come to expect from Kiersten Modglin—an eerie setting, a tangled web of secrets, and those signature twists that keep you second-guessing everything.

But having just finished Just Married last week, I couldn’t shake the déjà vu. The similarities were a little too close for comfort, which dulled the impact for me.

Still, the suspense was solid, the pacing tight, and the tension kept me reading. A good read—but not quite a five-star knockout this time.
