Announcing #MysteryTwitterTheater!!


#MysteryTwitterTheatre Banner

Hi everyone! Guess what I just heard? Last night, YA blogger Ensconced in Lit was murdered! Yep, now she's Ensconced in Death. Her body was discovered on Twitter, and the word on the street is that if someone can figure out who killed her ASAP, she can be brought back to life just in time to assist with the #LiarsIncBook Twitter party, on Tuesday 3/24 at 6pm Pacific time. Paula misses her and totally needs her help, so why not try to #SaveEnsconced? Click here to read what the Ghost of Ensconced has to say about the crime.

Who Killed Ensconced?

The motive for the crime seems pretty clear: a super-epic LIARS, INC. prize pack was stolen off her person sometime between the hours of 6pm and 11:59pm on Thursday, March 19th. What's LIARS, INC.? Oh, it's a murder mystery novel written by Paula Stokes and published by HarperTeen.

LIARS, INC. prize pack

Unlike what you see on TV, the detectives working the case won't let Paula snoop around the crime scene or handle all the evidence, so she’s been gathering clues on her own. But she’s sharing her clues under the #MysteryTwitterTheater hashtag so you can help her find the killer.

In addition to the murderer, you'll also need to figure out where the actual crime was committed, and what the murder weapon was. So basically, this is somewhat like an online game of Clue/Cluedo. The first person to correctly deduce all three pieces of information will win the super-epic LIARS, INC. prize pack, plus awesome mystery gifts.

Head on over to Paula’s blog for all the official details about the game! But be careful. You never know who might turn out to be a killer... *runs away*

Goodreads Summary:
For fans of Gone Girl, I Hunt Killers, and TV's How to Get Away with Murder.

Max Cantrell has never been a big fan of the truth, so when the opportunity arises to sell forged permission slips and cover stories to his classmates, it sounds like a good way to make a little money and liven up a boring senior year. With the help of his friends Preston and Parvati, Max starts Liars, Inc. Suddenly everybody needs something and the cash starts pouring in. Who knew lying could be so lucrative?

When Preston wants his own cover story to go visit a girl he met online, Max doesn’t think twice about hooking him up. Until Preston never comes home. Then the evidence starts to pile up—terrifying clues that lead the cops to Preston’s body. Terrifying clues that point to Max as the murderer.

Can Max find the real killer before he goes to prison for a crime he didn’t commit? In a story that Kirkus Reviews called "Captivating to the very end," Paula Stokes starts with one single white lie and weaves a twisted tale that will have readers guessing until the explosive final chapters.
