in the Tea Leaves. Lots of fun, tea ☕️ pastries 🥐 and murder. “When Theodosia Browning reads the tea leaves on the set of the movie Dark Fortunes, things go from spooky to worse. Lights are dimmed, the camera rolls, and red-hot sparks fly as the film’s director is murdered in a tricky electrical accident”

Am listening to The Plague by Albert Camus.
