đź–¤ DARK SUMMER: Secrets & Suspects đź–¤
📍 Jacksonville, Florida
Step into an afternoon of mystery, secrets, and suspense.
Dark Summer: Secrets & Suspects is an immersive, interactive bookish experience where a stolen manuscript, hidden clues, and a room full of suspects set the stage. Every guest plays a role—whether you’re solving the mystery, uncovering clues, or keeping secrets of your own.
This is not your typical book event… it’s a full experience.
🔎 What to Expect
✨ A blind date with a book (hand-selected for you)
✨ An upscale grazing table
✨ Non-alcoholic beverages (sweet tea, sodas, and more)
✨ Themed goodie bags
✨ Interactive games and challenges with prizes
✨ A multi-layered mystery woven throughout the event
You’ll have the opportunity to:
Choose your level of involvement
Participate in games and clue hunts
Work independently or team up with others
Compete to uncover the truth
Some guests may be suspects.
Some may be investigators.
Some may be hiding something.
👀 And you won’t know who to trust.
