No Memes of Escape

Odessa Dean has made a home of Brooklyn. She has a job she loves at Untapped Books & Café and a new group of friends to explore the city with. When she’s invited on a girls’ day out escape room adventure, she jumps at the chance. It’s all fun and games until the lights turn on and they discover one of the girls bludgeoned to death…

The only possible murder suspects are the five players that were locked in the escape room with the victim, including Odessa. She refuses to believe that one of them is responsible for murdering their friend, despite what the clues indicate. In between shifts at the café, Odessa splits her time interviewing the murder suspects, updating the bookstore’s social media accounts, and looking for the impossible–an affordable apartment in Williamsburg.

But crime–and criminally high rent–waits for no woman. Can Odessa clear her and her friends’ names before the police decide they’re guilty?
