A Gamache murder investigation filled with confusion, disbelief and utter turmoil. Penny swerves the reader this way and that as Gamache finds clues in several very strange places.

True crime podcaster Liza and her corporate financier wife Hanna want to spend Easter in a luxury hotel in the Scottish Highlands. Hanna planned it to rescue their marriage. It soon turns into a Murder Mystery Weekend with real victims.
Very Christie-esque, with chapter headings reminiscent of Cluedo.

Watching Woman in Cabin 10 because I started Woman in Suite 11 & realized I didn‘t remember as much as I should… but I also have to read the movie because the baby is asleep 😅
