Hey friends! Everyone loves a good mystery, and this episode we're serving up two. Back in the old days, Red Herring's were used to train & condition dogs to use their sense of smell better, by throwing them off trail with the pungent fish. In literature and film, Red Herrings are a plot device to purposely throw the viewer off the correct track in order to shock them later on in the story. The 1996 slasher cult classic Scream is the absolute definition of Red Herring, with its constant misleading clues and "Who Dunnit" mentality and a perfect pick for this episode. For our novel this week, Heather picked Ruth Ware's thriller "The Woman In Cabin 10" which has some shocking twists and turns itself, choosing to narrate the story from the future using news paper articles in between chapters, making you wonder if you ever truly know whats what. Enjoy and share with anyone who loves a good mystery!
