The Writing Retreat by Julia Bartz

BOOK BLURB

A book deal to die for.

Five attendees are selected for a month-long writing retreat at the remote estate of Roza Vallo, the controversial high priestess of feminist horror. Alex, a struggling writer, is thrilled.

Upon arrival, they discover they must complete an entire novel from scratch, and the best one will receive a seven-figure publishing deal. Alex’s long-extinguished dream now seems within reach.

But then the women begin to die.

Trapped, terrified yet still desperately writing, it is clear there is more than a publishing deal at stake at Blackbriar Estate. Alex must confront her own demons – and finish her novel – to save herself.

MY REVIEW

A group of writer’s are selected to attend a writer’s retreat at a remote estate. It’s all fun and exciting, until the attendees start dying.

The Writing Retreat is an intriguing and twisty debut novel. This was a fun and wild ride. Looking forward to more from this author.

I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
