A struggling food show, a marriage on the rocks, and a dead influencer in the Japanese hot spring...

What do they have in common? Me.

When my soon-to-be-ex and I arrived in this beautiful Japanese spa village to film our YouTube food show, becoming a murder suspect wasn't part of my content strategy.

But after a famous influencer propositioned my husband and I told her where to stick her yoga mat, she turned up dead in the hot spring. Now I'm racing to solve the crime before I either become the next victim or star in "Japanese Prison Cuisine" for life.

Between faking marital bliss for our fans, a blackmail note, and my actor husband's TV-cop "expertise," this Japanese getaway has become my worst nightmare. (Okay, at least the sushi is to die for).

My grandma always said I had a talent for kneading myself into fine messes, but this might just be my masterpiece.

Death In Onsen is the delicious first course of An International Foodie Mystery. Perfect for fans who love their mysteries served with a side of snark, a pinch of romance, and a generous helping of international intrigue.

My 4 STAR REVIEW TITLED: Megan deserves Better (Just a Taste)

As I was reading it I kept thinking, "Dump that handsome, entitled bum, Reed Prescott.!" Follow through on it. He really is a man-child like she said. He played Detective Bennett on TV until he got killed off and now he's the main face on their Vlog together. He constantly complains and leaves her with all the work.

Megan does get some good, funny digs in though. When Aurora Wynters another Vlogger who is a fake, not nice lady, Reed goes all googly eyed ! Sure, she's a wealthy multi-millionaire from her work. But she's fake from the ground up and makes her assistant work like a slave.

The story though short had potential however:

I liked that it was set in Japan and I got to read about different things abut the food and culture but it did end in a cliffhanger which I don't like. To be this edition was a bookfunnel one. Just not sure if I will be following up in:
