When Ellery discovers the dead groom, she realizes that she is not the only one whose future is no longer guaranteed. Before the police can reach Broken Point, a mudslide takes out the road to the resort, leaving the guests trapped. When another guest dies, it’s clear something horrible is brewing. Everyone at Broken Point has a secret. And everyone has a shadow. Including Ellery. Read more

Unwedding
Format: Kindle
Lots of twists and turns and you will be changing your mind several times before the end. Fun to read about Big Sur area.

Beautiful Scenery...But SOOOO Slow....
Format: Hardcover
The Unwedding is a mix of amateur sleuthing, mystery, and suspense, all set against the backdrop of a luxurious resort in Big Sur. With elements of a locked-room and cozy-type mystery, the setting is spectacular – and captivated me from the start. Condie paints the surroundings so well that you can almost hear the waves and feel the tension in the storm. For audiobook fans, the included PDF map of the resort is a cool bonus, and helps to immerse you even further into the setting. Unfortunately, the character development and pacing is lackluster. Ellery, the protagonist, is a recently divorced single mom who is at the resort alone and becomes stranded after a mudslide isolates the guests. She is kind and sweet but is constantly struggling with her past trauma—both from her marriage and a tragic accident. While this backstory provides depth, it also renders her character more passive than proactive. I found her internal dialog to be overly whiny at times, especially when placed alongside the urgency of the murder mystery plot. As a trauma counselor, I appreciate that Condie made a strong effort to explore the complexities of grief and loss through Ellery. However, in this was just the wrong setting for it and it went on way too long. Her constant dwelling on the past seemed to overshadow the forward momentum of the plot. While imperfect protagonists can add depth, Ellery's emotional struggles felt mismatched with the story’s pace, making her less suited for the demands of this suspenseful narrative. I thought the plot started strong, but it gradually loses momentum, and then bottoms out completely. What begins as a tense, engaging mystery gets bogged down by unnecessary dialogue and side plots that don’t push the story forward. There’s a sense that Condie, got a little lost in her beautiful setting and left the main plot to fizzle out instead of intensifying. The ending felt rushed to me and was overloaded with information—some of which didn't seem to tie into the final resolution. Key details were thrown in without enough explanation or connection to the story’s earlier developments. This is definitely a visually rich and atmospheric read that may appeal to fans of cozy mysteries and isolated settings, but its uneven pacing, boring characters and overwhelming conclusion left me unsatisfied. Honestly, I couldn’t wait for it to end.

Tension and Suspense
Format: Kindle
This book begins slowly as it builds the background. I considered whether I wanted to finish reading the book. But then, it becomes a page turner and I didn’t want to stop reading and reading. The suspense is real. The characters are real, although there are quite a few of them. A character map would have been helpful. I was on the edge of my seat during so much of the story. I definitely recommend this book.

Fun Murder Mystery
Format: Kindle
This was not a thriller but more of a fun who dunnit. It takes place at a cozy resort and has a relatable FMC. I enjoyed that character growth and the unfolding of events. If you’re looking for a fun murder mystery then this is definitely worth the read.

It was fine
Format: Kindle
This started out really strong but kinda snagged in the middle pacing wise for me. The last couple chapters dragged. I was a little annoyed it felt like our who done it came out of nowhere. The premise is strong but a few elements I felt like could have been taken out entirely and it wouldn’t have changed the story. I’m not unhappy I read it, but it wouldn’t be on the top of my list to recommend.

good beginning
Format: Kindle
I thought the beginning and set up good, kept my attention and I was intrigued… but then it fell apart and completely unraveled in end. I skipped last two chapters because I was over all the blah wrapping up. It was drawn out and boring. The middle was long and I just wanted to get to the who done it part, and when it finally got there it was all just conjecture of everyone in a blubbery mess of confusion. And I was over it at that point, this not reading the numerous chapters afterward that drone on for wrap up.

Who will solve the crime?
Format: Kindle
Ellery, recently divorced, is taking her anniversary trip by herself, to Big Sur. At the resort there was also a wedding that was taking place. Ellery befriends two people who are vacationing there, and at first they let her in on their vacation antics, but it soon turns into them trying to solve a crime. The groom is found dead and everyone is a suspect. Then one of the groomsmen turns up dead, and there is a mudslide preventing them from leaving the resort. I felt this story did drag quite a bit in the beginning, I did listen to the audible version and loved the narrators.

Healing with an Agatha Christie flair
Format: Kindle
What starts as a retreat to come to terms with her divorce and her feelings of loss, turns into a whodunnit for Ellery. (One of those "I went on vacation by myself and suddenly ended up in the middle of this crazy event!") Due to weather conditions, the guests at a resort are trapped together and end up in a crime solving mission. Some are more on the sleuthimg mission than others, Ellery included. I found it hard to track the personalities of the wedding party and to piece together any of the hints myself. Perhaps that's why this was a book I easily put aside when I started reading it. The last half read more quickly as the investigation gathers momentum. Even then, I was surprised at the conclusions that identified the criminal acts. The main character, Ellery, is carrying personal baggage beyond the divorce. That part is also hard to decipher until the end. I'm not sure she'll ever be free of the feelings of guilt from her past or her divorce, but she learns to accept them as part of who she is. A good lesson for all really; to take the awful things that happen in our lives and embrace them as soul shaping events, things that can make you stronger when you come through the other side.
