pickI‘m not sure I could summarize what this book is about. It‘s kind of about love? And regret, I guess. But kind of neither? It‘s often funny in a dry, judgmental way. Very well-observed characters. Interesting but, for me, not exactly moving.
pickEdith Hope has been sent to Hotel du Lac in Switzerland after an indiscretion to be out of view to her English friends. She sees it as an opportunity to do some work, she‘s an author.
At Hotel du Lac there‘s several other rich, English women. In a way this atmosphere reminded me of a Poirot crime without the crime.

pickCIA Agent Mac Decker “died” shortly after being accused as a traitor when his long term friend Ilya Ivashka defected to Russia. Actually Decker was framed, and faking his death, has been living under another identity in Switzerland. Then he learns that his son has died while involved in a CIA action. Mac comes out of the shadows and, with his Mossad lover, sets out to right the wrong. Everything tied up in a neat bow at the end. A fun read!

This Tuesday I went on an excursion to the setting of The Judge and his hangman with my 9th graders. It was a guided hike through the Twannbach gorge designed like an escape room/quiz. They had to listen to the clues given by actors at the original scenes to find out who was the murderer. Their reactions were mixed because it sometimes was a tough hike. I loved it. 🕵️♀️🙈🕵️♀️
