The Murder Game: The Mask of Liars
One dead body.
Seven people.
And one murderer.
The seven people are locked inside a building together. In the middle of the room lay a dead body that they all know but do not remember. The occupants have to play a game to regain their memories while finding out who the murderer is.
Liam: The arrogant CEO
"I have too much paperwork to have the time to commit a murder. It wasn't me."
Taylor: The teenage outcast
"People always say it is the quiet one, but I am too much of a loner to interact with anyone. It wasn't me."
Lilian: The art teacher
"I would never hurt anyone or anything! It wasn't me."
Catherine: The jock
"I am all about sports; why would I ruin my full-ride scholarship with murder? It wasn't me."
Kevin: The nerd
"I barely go out and only care about learning. It wasn't me."
Elrick: The computer programmer
"I am always surrounded by my friends when I am not at work. It wasn't me."
Alan: The little boy
"I am a child. I-It wasn't me."
Who is the killer?
I'm loving the mental games going on between the different characters. Kind of reminds me of Twelve Angry Men (being stuck in one room and trying to reach a consensus) and Death Parade (random people being forced to play a game with limited memories). Fun to read so far. Just a few grammatical mistakes, but it overall reads well and gets the suspense right. Introducing so many characters can be difficult, but even with just 3 chapters, I have a good feeling about each of them. Looking forward to more and figuring out who the killer is!
An interesting mashup of Saw meets Agatha Christie meets The Weakest Link. A few grammatical errors, but I'm curious to see where this goes.
I like how you write horror and thriller moment in this one. Its simple and neat, that I can understand immediately without thinking to much. As soon as you read, the mystery already started.
Its an interesting premise and I like the characters different emotional perspectives. Though there are a fee grammatical errors, it doesn't confuse the reader. I wish you the best on your book Author 👍
