Book Club alert: Discussion questions included
Behind the grandeur of Eagle Roost lurks a household at war with itself.
Freelance editor
Louise Penfold
joins her friend Nora for a Thanksgiving gathering on Lake Huron, expecting warmth and hospitality. Instead, Eagle Roost looms grand and remote, its residents anything but welcoming.
A hostess anxious to please, a host intent on provocation, and a clutch of mismatched guests-including a smooth-tongued ghostwriter, a vicar fond of quoting, and his stately wife-create an atmosphere ripe with friction. Shadow the dog settles happily among new companions, but Louise cannot shake her unease.
By the time the dinner bell tolls, she knows this is no ordinary holiday.
And as night descends, dread settles: something is bound to break.
Perfect for fans of classic whodunit mysteries with sharp-witted heroines, village intrigue, and secrets worth killing for.
Books in the series include questions for Book Club discussions or reflection.
