Staff Only (A Novella)

When BookTok reviewer Nora Chen arrives at the 2026 Creepy Retreat — a long weekend of panels, cocktails, and four hundred fifty thriller fans at a luxury Scottsdale resort — she's expecting craft discussions and swag bags, not a real crime scene.

But when she discovers bestselling author Darcy Vale dead in the spa, the retreat becomes something far more dangerous than fiction.

The resort is locked down. Keys are collected. And everyone has a theory.

Staff Only is a locked-resort mystery about stolen manuscripts, manufactured fame, and the dangerous distance between the stories we tell and the truths we bury. Perfect for fans of The Maid, Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone, and anyone who's ever wondered "what if?"during a thriller book event.
