Lets Play Murder

 By: Kesia Lupo

Genre: Horror, Mystery- Video Game Fiction

Location: FIV LUP

Video games have never been more murderous.

Veronica wakes up trapped with four strangers in a sprawling manor house in a snow storm with a dead body, a mystery right out of an Agatha Christie novel. It feels so real - but it isn't. This is VR and this is THE Game; a rumoured Easter Egg hidden in other VR games that draws you into a competition for a prize beyond your wildest dreams. And there's no escaping the VR world until the Game is won.

But while Veronica and her fellow players are trying to figure out the puzzle, something is not right in the VR world. Blackouts, glitches, NPCs acting strange, and a mysterious figure haunting their footsteps. Then when a player dies, and also dies in real life, all hell breaks loose.

Without warning, the game Veronica thought she was playing gets overshadowed by a much darker, and much more real, mystery: who is killing us?'

It may not be a game Veronica wanted to play, but it's one that she has to win - or die trying.

Review- Kasha

The first thing you need to know about this book is that it is so addictive, the moment you start you will not be able to put it down until you are finished.

The second thing you need to know is that it will take you on an amazing adventure full of surprises.

Veronica was playing a VR game with her brother when she suddenly wakes up trapped with four strangers in a manor in the middle of a snow storm.

To make things worse, there is a dead body.This is a mystery right out of an Agatha Christie novel. It feels so real - but it isn't. This is VR and this is THE Game.

People are randomly selected to join this special game that has a big monetary prize. The players need to solve the murder mystery before they run out of time.

This was Cluedo meets Ready Player One in an intense adventure that will have you guessing and playing detective together with our characters.

Definitely a really strong YA Horror Mystery Thriller that combines the modern technology of VR gaming with the classic murder mystery investigation of a Cluedo board game.
