I was hoping this would be more of a creepy read given the setting, but it ended up being more of a locked-room mystery. Which is fine, b/c I shouldn't have assumed. But overall, I found the characters kind of annoying and I didn't particularly care about what happened to them. The mystery and plot were well-plotted and kept me interested in finding out what happened. I will say that I was overall happy with the ending, implausible though it was!

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC!

A college reunion at a Hitchcock hotel, with an owner named Alfred. You know things are going to end badly, just not for whom or why - yet. There are a few good twists, the person murdered wasn’t the one I had expected. The problem here is that I didn’t like any of the characters. The plot was just okay enough to keep me going. This is a run of the mill murder mystery, you’ve been here before. The Hitchcock aspect is just window dressing.
