When actress Nora Blake takes a job in a castle, as part of a mystery dinner troupe, she doesn't expect to find herself wrapped up in a real murder investigation.
I was really excited to read this book, I enjoy a good gothic style mystery, and this author is one of my favorites.
The secondary characters are a great fit, they add excitement to this first in a new series.
I think this new series is going to appeal to a lot of readers, as it is a terrific blend of cozy & gothic writing styles.

I'm looking forward to reading the next book!
Thank you for selecting me to read an advanced digital copy of Death in Castle Dark.

Plot: It was so good! It took multiple twists, and I really liked how the mystery played out. PLUS, I didn't figure out the culprit in this one until the main character did, which is so rare for me, so this book gets extra bonus points for that! I won't share anymore for fear of spoiling it for people. I also really liked the romance in it!

Characters: I really liked all the characters! Nora was a fantastic main character, and I like how she went about solving the mystery. It felt very natural, and not at all forced. And Nora and Dash's romance was fun! I liked the castle staff, but won't say anything more about them for fear of spoiling certain plot points!

The Cover: I like it!

Overall: I really loved this book! From the mystery to the characters, everything was really well written. I also loved the ending! Overall, a five star read that I highly recommend to cozy mystery fans! I eagerly anticipate more books!

I received an e-ARC of this book from the publisher.

Nora Blake has landed an acting gig in an old mansion where guests come to witness murder most foul and then try to solve the crime. It’s a chance for Nora to gain some acting experience while staying at a gorgeous old manor house for free. What could possibly go wrong? At Castle Dark’s second show, the actor portraying the victim takes the role a little too seriously and winds up dead. Nora will have to use her budding detective skills to ferret out the killer. This is an enjoyable cozy for those who don’t want to much mayhem with their murder
