Bright pink neon sign that reads 'SIX MUST DIE' in all capital letters.
Book cover titled 'Six Must Die' by Victoria Włosok, featuring neon-style pink text, a broken glass background, dripping red paint, and a sad neon skull.

Perfect for fans of I Know What You Did Last Summer and Karen M. McManus’s The Cousins, this propulsive thriller follows a fractured group of friends as they fight to survive a killer escape room in rural Tennessee.

Twelve months ago, an escape room fire took everything from Steffi Zamekova. In just one hour, she lost it all: her popular blog, her close-knit companions, and her memories of the night when one of the group’s own was killed…the charismatic (if infuriating) Matt Cesari.

On the anniversary of the bewildering tragedy, Steffi is still desperate to piece together what went wrong. So when she receives an ominous invitation in the mail summoning her to the new escape room across town, she seizes the chance for answers.

Reunited with her former friends, Steffi sees the game as a last chance to uncover the truth behind Matt’s death. But it’s soon clear that each participant has their own cagey reasons for accepting the challenge. And as tensions rise and the players are picked off one by one, it’s a race against the clock for Steffi to uncover their secrets and unlock her own memories before the game’s mastermind ensures that no one escapes the room alive.
