The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

One murder, eight days, eight hosts and one chance. In his debut novel, Stuart Turton tells a story that is part science fiction/fantasy, part psychological thriller, and part classic whodunit mystery. The result is, to quote Winston Churchill, “a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma." Turton seamlessly combines these disparate tropes of storytelling into a tale, regardless of which genre’s elements may have tempted you into reading it.
