The Last Invitation

A storm traps them. A host is dead. And the truth is already in the room.

When eight guests gather at a secluded beachfront estate, the evening is meant to be controlled, deliberate—until the host is found dead in his study. With the storm cutting off all escape, Detective Rafe Meridian must rely on observation, logic, and the smallest details to uncover what really happened.

At first glance, it’s a private tragedy.

But the sequence doesn’t fit.

A glass out of place. A reaction no one noticed. A pattern hidden in plain sight.

As Rafe reconstructs the night, motives begin to surface—money, control, and secrets that were never meant to be uncovered. Everyone had access. Everyone had a reason.

But only one person planned every step.

Perfect for fans of classic whodunits, Meridian Files: The Last Invitation delivers a tightly constructed mystery where the answer is always there—if you know where to look.
