In the next episode, they'll be covering their second historical fiction novel, The Paris Deception by Bryn Turnbull. BOOK CLUB QUESTIONS: Was Odette’s death a surprise to you, or did you see it coming? How did the death of the main character impact the story for you? Who was your main suspect for Trumanell’s disappearance, and then Odette’s disappearance? Did you suspect the same person for both? What do you think Dr. Greco’s motivation was for writing the true crime novel about Trumanell and Odette’s case? Did it feel wrong or unethical to you? Why do you think we as a society seem to be so fascinated with true crime stories? Many characters in the book were haunted by their past, and Wyatt was even haunted by the ghost, or presence, of Trumanell. Do you have any spooky stories or experiences with ghosts? What were your thoughts about Angel’s storyline? Were you surprised at all by her connection and continued involvement in the story following the five year time jump?
