Spoiler-free, but fun notes on The Resort.
First, "Philip Emmons," Bentley's pseudonym, makes yet another appearance in the Bentleyverse, as a Cassandra-like figure. And we hear about the movie-version of Death Instinct (an early novel written under that pseudonym), which, according to a movie critic character, appears to be an under-appreciated classic.
Yeah, I dig in-jokes. Especially ones that don't overwhelm the actually plot.
