This is an excellent homage to the fabulous Clue movie and board game, complete with a spooky mansion, an eclectic cast of characters, and an intriguing mystery. ( )

This is an officially licensed Clue mystery. Yes, as in the game from Hasbro. As the title suggests we know how somebody is going to die: In the hall with a knife, but who will it be. Our game takes place in Tudor house on a peninsula in northern Maine. Tudor house is a girl’s dorm at a budding science academy for only the biggest brains with the biggest pockets. A winter storm has come in, flooded most of campus, and separated the school from the rest of town. The students that didn’t evacuate are now stuck in the house with a killer. But who is the killer and who’s really the prey and why are they dead? Those are the questions you must answer to solve this game of Clue. This book was a lot of fun and very tongue and cheek. There are characters that align with the game like Mustard, Peacock, White, etc. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I love the play on the old board game as well as how the action fells like you are in the middle of said game. Now this book doesn’t end completely. We still don’t know what happened to Orchid, her history or what the hell the Green twins are up to. I need more! I need the next book! This book is a trilogy. All are out and I can’t wait to pick up but number two: In the Study with a Wrench. ( )

In this Clue homage, a group of students are trapped at a remote boarding school due to flooding. Their classmates headed home for the holidays, but then a major storm hit. Now they're trapped in the only dorm on high enough ground to avoid flooding . . . and Headmaster Boddy has just been found with a knife in his chest. While the janitor sets off to get police help, the students start worrying who might be next . . . and if there's anyone else in the house with them.

The book doesn't have the lightning wit of the 1985 film, and some of the color-based names are a stretch ("Mustard" as a nickname?). The writing is good and the characters mostly distinct. I found one plot point rather confusing, but that may have been intentional. While the main mystery is resolved by the end of the book, there are plenty of secrets hinted at or partially revealed that will probably play a role in later books in the series. I didn't love it enough to continue on, but it was a pleasant diversion. ( )
