Every Time I Go on Vacation, Someone Dies - The Vacation Mysteries #1 by Catherine Mack

All that bestselling author Eleanor Dash wants is to get through her book tour in Italy and kill off her main character, Connor Smith, in the next in her Vacation Mysteries series―is that too much to ask?

Clearly, because when an attempt is made on the real Connor's life―the handsome but infuriating con man she got mixed up with ten years ago and now can't get out of her life―Eleanor's enlisted to help solve the case.

Contending with literary rivals, rabid fans, a stalker―and even her ex, Oliver, who turns up unexpectedly―theories are bandied about, and rivalries, rifts, and broken hearts are revealed. But who's really trying to get away with murder?
