Odessa Dean has made a home of Brooklyn. She has a fun job waiting tables at Untapped Books & Café and a new friend, Izzy, 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 come on and they discover one of the girls bludgeoned to death...
The only possible suspects are Odessa and the four other players that were locked in the escape room with the victim. She refuses to believe that one of them is responsible for the murder, 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 searching for the impossible—an affordable apartment in Brooklyn.
But crime—and criminally high rent—waits for no woman. Can Odessa clear her and Izzy’s names before the police decide they're guilty?

A cutthroat New York real estate broker meets her demise in Blacke’s unfocused second mystery featuring transplanted Southern waitress Odessa Dean (after Killer Content). Odessa enjoys waiting tables and posting on social media for Untapped Books & Café in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood. When Odessa joins her Brooklyn friend Izzy Wilson and four other women in an escape room adventure, one of the group, Vickie Marsh, a high achiever in the world of apartment rentals, winds up bludgeoned to death during the adventure. As the murder weapon was a trophy belonging to Odessa and Izzy, NYPD Det. Vincent Castillo can’t exonerate them immediately. Seeking to unmask the killer, Odessa uncovers professional and personal jealousies among the women. Far-fetched scenarios and preoccupations with Odessa’s personal life over actual detection make for disappointing reading. Hopefully, Blacke will do better next time. Agent: James McGowan, BookEnds Literary.
