“The door was locked. The lights were on. And someone inside was dead.”

In The Only Weapon In The Room, B. Baskerville presents a gripping locked-room mystery that plays with perception, motive, and memory. When prominent psychologist Dr. Elias Monroe is found murdered in his private office—no sign of forced entry, no escape route, and just one weapon in sight—the police are baffled.

Enter Detective Lena Morane, sharp, skeptical, and no stranger to mind games. As she dives into Monroe’s files, she unearths disturbing patterns. His patients, once thought to be victims of trauma, may hold the key to unraveling the crime. But the more Lena learns, the more tangled the web becomes—especially when each suspect seems to believe their own twisted version of the truth.

The office becomes more than a crime scene—it’s a psychological labyrinth. The one weapon found? A simple letter opener. But motives? There’s a dozen. From betrayed spouses to discredited colleagues, and a patient whose secrets could shake the foundation of everything Monroe stood for.

Lena must decipher the clues while confronting her own shadowed past. Because in this case, truth and madness walk a razor’s edge—and the killer could be the last person she suspects.

Tense, claustrophobic, and unnervingly intelligent, The Only Weapon In The Room is for readers who love intricate mysteries with a psychological twist.
