Every Time I Go on Vacation, Someone Dies: A Novel

The USA Today bestselling first novel in a witty series following author Eleanor Dash on her Italian book tour that turns into a real-life murder mystery, as her life starts to imitate fiction.

Ten days, eight suspects, six cities, five authors, three bodies, one bestseller.

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 the Vacation Mysteries series—is that too much to ask?

Clearly, because when an attempt is made on the real Connor’s life—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 rivals, 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. Soon Eleanor can’t help but wonder: do they want to solve the case, or pin the murder on her?
