Drama, Deception, and Double-Cross: A Reality TV Cozy Mystery
About this ebook
The mission: Survive the game. The twist: One contestant isn’t acting.
Twin sisters Lizzie and Samantha Brown are no strangers to competition, but when they join Spooks, a spy-themed reality show filmed at an abandoned hospital, the game takes a deadly turn. Contestants must outwit, deceive, and eliminate their rivals—until only one remains.
When Samantha "kills" Lizzie in a dramatic elimination, Lizzie expects to spend the rest of the game in the isolation bunker. Instead, she stumbles into a real-life mystery. Fellow contestant Cooke Kingston has vanished, and the only witness was left unconscious during the attack. The show was supposed to be staged, but someone is playing for keeps.
With the producers nowhere to be found and the hospital’s dark corridors hiding more than just cameras, Lizzie must decide whether to play by the rules or break them to uncover the truth. Meanwhile, Samantha steps into the role of a spycatcher, orchestrating a counterintelligence gambit that turns the game on its head.
With strategic misdirection and bold moves, the twins work to expose the hidden enemy—but when the final act is revealed, they may discover the real mission is far more dangerous than anyone imagined.
As the lines between fiction and reality blur, the twins must navigate a web of deception, betrayal, and high-stakes sabotage. Can they expose the real double agent and claim victory before the final curtain falls?
