The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle
by Stuart Turton
At a lavish party held at the secluded Blackheath House, Evelyn Hardcastle will be murdered—but her death is only the beginning of a sinister mystery. Aiden Bishop must solve her murder to escape, but there's a terrifying catch: every time the day begins again, he awakens in the body of a different guest, each with their own secrets, perspectives, and limitations. Trapped in an endlessly repeating cycle, Aiden must piece together clues, navigate dangerous alliances, and uncover the truth before time runs out. Blending the intrigue of a classic whodunit with an inventive time-loop premise, The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is a mind-bending tale of deception, identity, and survival.
