The Hitchcock Hotel

De: Stephanie Wrobel

Narrado por: Michael Crouch, Gail Shalan, Helen Lloyd

THE USA TODAY BESTSELLER ∙ A Hitchcock fanatic with an agenda invites old friends for a weekend stay at his secluded themed hotel in this fiendishly clever, suspenseful novel from the international bestselling author of Darling Rose Gold.

"A clever, sinister fun-house ride."–People

Alfred Smettle is not your average Hitchcock fan. He is the founder, owner, and manager of The Hitchcock Hotel, a sprawling Victorian house in the White Mountains dedicated to the Master of Suspense. There, Alfred offers his guests round-the-clock film screenings, movie props and memorabilia in every room, plus an aviary with fifty crows.

To celebrate the hotel’s first anniversary, he invites his former best friends from his college Film Club for a reunion. He hasn’t spoken to any of them in sixteen years, not after what happened.

But who better than them to appreciate Alfred’s creation? And to help him finish it.

After all, no Hitchcock set is complete without a body.

"Jaw-dropping."–Riley Sager

"Hugely readable and tremendous fun."–Alex Michaelides

Actuación

Bueno por la actuación , el guion no muy bueno . Esperaba más del libro y del clímax

Nice Twists and Turns

The was a great read. There are many twists and turns to keep you guessing as you get to know the people gathered for a college reunion. Who is guilt, and of what? Who is suspicious about what and about whom?

I liked it

The only reason I did not give this a five star rating is I guessed the murderer early on, however, I truly enjoyed the conclusion. Definitely entertaining.

Great Thriller!

I enjoyed this thriller, "Who Done It?" The twist was unexpected, like in a Hitchcock movie. Every character had secrets that kept me on my feet. The narrators, Michael Crouch, Gail Shalan, and Helen Lloyd, did a fantastic job with all the characters.

The story felt like watching a film by Hitchcock

Fans of Hitchcock will enjoy this novel. Some plot points can be predicted if you're a fan of thrillers, but I couldn't put the book down.

Not for me

I love Hitchcock and the cover attracts me. Not for me but others loved it

A must-have for fans of Hitch

Everyone has something to hide. Plenty of nods to Hitchcock's career. A must-have for ammature and old Hitchcock fans. Highly recommend it.

Filled with Hitchcock References

Filled with Hitchcock References. It has been too many years since I have watched any Hitchcock. When I was growing up I used to watch the Hitchcock TV show on Tuesday nights. I was in seventh or eighth grade so more years ago than I care to remember. I was a fan. I even watched some of the TV episodes more recently on Netflix- still twenty plus years ago. For some reason I didn’t see his movies when they came out. I remember when both Psycho and Birds were released but it was many years later when I saw them. I did see North by Northwest when it was in theaters and somewhere along the line I watched Read Windows and Vertigo. I am inspired to go back and watch the films and even the TV episodes.
The book it’s a border story with some strange twists. Somehow the final ending seemed to lack something.

Hitchcock would make it a movie

Very good story with characters that you learn to dislike. It is a good mystery story but not scary and not too atmospheric. There are many twists and turns so stick with it. Hitch would have made a movie better than the book.

Fantastic! A Binge-Worthy Listen!

Intriguing, eerie, mysterious, and fun! Kept me in suspense and on my toes the whole time. Super well written and well performed! Loved it!
