The Orange Peel Game in a collage of theater motifs, ciphers, oranges, and 1949 magazines. Text says: Caroline shouldn't have heard what was on that call.

The Orange Peel Game. The Westing Game meets National Treasure. Blurb: Caroline shouldn't have heard what was on that call.

It's 1949 in Cincinnati, a time where everyone is unwrapping their wounds of war. Caroline, a
switchboard operator, overhears a murder in a nearby phonebooth with no one to believe her. But the encryption games of WW2, it seems, are not quite over: Her search for the killer propels her into a game of puzzles and cyphers laid out across the city. Those who've already been playing watch her from the shadows, and one of them might just be the murderer. And there's one more thing curious about Caroline:

She can taste the world. Comp titles: The Westing Game, for forced compition. Blue Prince, for vibes and puzzles. The 7 and a Half Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, for high concept and twisty mystery.

Excerpt from The Orange Peel Game reads: A small, wooden box, golden and virtually glowing with varnish. It was thoughtfully carved. Scalloped feet. A border of inlaid, yellow flowers crowned its sealed lid. Caroline neared a step closer to determine it was a music box, though just slightly larger than most. With another shuffling step aside, she realized it could rather be a jewelry box, just slightly smaller than what a woman would prefer.
Whatever it was, it looked awfully benign. It was something that very clearly didn’t belong. She could easily step over it, or around, but it arrested her by the now sealed doors at her back and demanded her every attention. In a stripped-out theater, this small object was what remained, pristine.
As she craned her neck to look around its corners, everything about it seemed entirely innocent— all except for a massive and brutish industrial combination lock, biting on its delicate features. Caroline looked up, with an unease rising in her gut, as it all had started to feel…
Artificial.

A collage of materials from the 1940s. Lines from The Orange Peel Game read: dangerous. Pith and pulp and orange peels. Everything means something in this game.

Excerpts from The Orange Peel Game reads: He leaned in and whispered— a new pinhole light in his eyes. “Don’t you get a feeling from it all? Like you’ve found something… Something you weren’t supposed to. And now that you’re here you have a choice: Keep playing the game and see where it leads, or forget about it all— very well knowing other puzzles are out there. And knowing there are players, all around, who have its secrets.” “Grapevines have a lot of. Useless. Chatter. Noise, noise, noise, noise, noise.” His eyes still squeezed on hers, feverishly. Ravenously. As if daring her to talk, too. “But it told me about a game. See? Something finally fun to do in this draggin’ town.” “I should warn you,” Clement managed, now fully whispering. “In every iteration, opening the box has always proved dangerous.”

Well, today is a very productive day to be a writer! -Finalized my novel's brief -Reached a ⅓ of the way in a new round of edits, after my editors' feedback -Sent ideas + sketches to my cover designer (Cover reveal coming soon!) Join my debut novel's journey! 🧡 #readsky #tbr #bookrecs #bookish 💙📚

A screenshot of an early draft of The Orange Peel Game, highlighted by an editor. The text reads: It had taken Caroline a second longer. A mouthful surfaced to her mind:
WAVES— Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service.
“You’re a codebreaker?”
“Was, dear Caroline. Had a late recruitment and an early sign-off, soon as it all ended. I’d do anything to be that, again.” Her grip on the machine tightened, flaring her knuckles a shade of white.
“Can you read what it says, then?”
Olive turned back to the letters with a scoff. “If it were that easy, I would’ve been dismissed faster than a pistol.” Her smile paused for a moment. Something behind her hooded eyes turned, like gears. “Would you… like to see how it’s done, Caroline?”

Having lexical-gustatory synesthesia, our lead Caroline experiences the world on her tongue... 🍊 My debut 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘖𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘗𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘎𝘢𝘮𝘦 is coming soon 🧡 (substituting with "immediately") #readsky #tbr #amreading #bookrecs #booksky #bookish 💙📚

Excerpt from The Orange Peel Game reads: But Caroline didn’t know that others couldn’t taste letters until the age of twelve.
She didn’t know that consonants and vowels didn’t immediately make them sense acid or charred edges or perfume or perfectly ripe fruit. Or how they couldn’t feel the way phonemes and graphemes could scratch her tongue with fish scales or graze it with silk. To her, words and tastes were one and the same. So, in the moment Caroline took in conversations, she would instantly, and thoughtlessly, experience them behind her lips. It was impossible for her to perceive one without the other, so it was effortless. It was involuntary. It was, to her, very much normal.

One terrible day has stolen a memory from Caroline. All she'd rather wish to do is sleep off the day's bruises, but she can't stay in the strange game without remembering... 🍊 Excerpt from my soon debut, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘖𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘗𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘎𝘢𝘮𝘦 #tbr #readsky #mystery #amreading #bookrecs #booksky #bookish 💙📚

Excerpt from The Orange Peel Game reads: Small, unsteady legs. An ungroomed pelt of hair. Taking shaky steps, as if they were her first, Caroline fell into the embrace of her apartment. Pulling at her trousers on the couch, she could have sworn there would be bruises from the long, dark, dark, dark trek back. Unscathed from her encounter with name redacted, but the roads had scathed her body just as well. Caroline felt absolutely used up— just the way she had initially wished. Used like her papers. Used for a noble purpose. Used for something finally outside of herself. So, Why must it be so hard? And the work still was not done. Her body was spent, but her mind could have sparks left, and Caroline tried to strike them alive to wake a memory. For now, as she cradled her head with a hand, all that seemed left inside it were fumes.

Excerpt from The Orange Peel Game reads: Caroline thought of picking and peeling the tough pith of an orange. The game became very much like one— as something to peel back. To unwrap and lay bare. One, ripe prize in its center. If she wasn’t before, she had decided it now: Caroline was its player, and she’d make the game maker regret that. By the time she’d get the box open, she’ll have exposed a killer.

Excerpt from The Orange Peel Game reads: Caroline had hoped she would know the next clue when she saw it: Searching through the glazed, cracked arms of the Renaissance for a white hare, or between the abstract’s contours for a black circle to crawl into. And everything was too quiet. Leaving another pasted face on the wall with sealed lips, framed in glorified gold, Caroline thought the decadence would surely be better fit for something live. And royal. And loud.

Excerpt from The Orange Peel Game: "The room Caroline sat in was overflowing with a rhythm. A song of phone jacks, plucked and plugged into switchboards that filled a warehouse to its rim. It was musical. It was palpable. It was much like drinking a daiquiri. The simple syrup was there, up to the brim, in all the number, pleases. The nip of lime was where those occasional long-distances were called out. And the voices of the girls were much like chittery ice, filling up a coupe glass. Every word inside that telephone exchange office could be, comfortingly, anticipated. And Caroline could taste it all."
