Some books end when you turn the final page. Others stay with you — the places, the characters, the questions, and the mysteries you wish you could experience for yourself.

This is your invitation to step inside The House That Held Her.

Join author Ellis Hart for an intimate reader retreat in the historic lakeside town of Mount Dora, Florida — the real setting that inspired the novel. Over four unforgettable days, readers will explore the places behind the story, uncover hidden details, decode clues, and experience a mystery created exclusively for retreat guests.

Part literary escape, part behind-the-scenes author experience, and part interactive mystery weekend, this retreat brings readers together through storytelling, history, curiosity, and connection.

From secret envelopes waiting in your room to lakeside conversations, historic walks, author sessions, cipher challenges, and a final reveal, every moment is designed to make you feel like you have entered the pages of the story.

For our first 10 Retreat Guests, Ellis Hart is creating something unforgettable - the chance to have your own name appear within the pages of his upcoming novella!

As part of this exclusive experience, you'll also be part of a private, exclusive gathering with Ellis during this retreat, sharing stories, inspiration, and conversation beyond the pages. Because the best journeys don't just follow stories...sometimes they become part of them!

Limited to the first 10 registrants!!!!
