Sarah finds herself trapped with the killer, Tonya Spratt-Williams. First, when, if ever, did you suspect her? What did you think of how Sarah handled herself?

As soon as she talked about brewing the tea and how it was special I wanted Sarah to get out of there! I don't think I suspected her before that.
Sarah was amazing. Lucky in that she didn't drink the tea but also very strong in the way she fought.

That’s about when it dawned on me, too, Phrynne! I was screaming at her not to drink that nasty tea. I should have known Sarah was smarter than that.

I love how she saved herself, too. Sarah went after her with a vengeance.

Same here. The tea gave it away. Until then I was sure it was Tamar.

The stacking of the three cups was my first suspicion. The suggestion of four lumps of sugar was the second.

I'm not sure when I started seriously suspecting her. Maybe when she wasn't all that sorrowful the second time Sarah visited her after Vivian's death. But until that tea scene I was never sure of her guilt. Until then Tamar was still a very strong suspect.

I had flashbacks to that other time Sarah was poisoned with tea. This time she was very lucky, but I hope she'll learn to avoid drinks and refreshments when on a murder investigation.

I had already ruled Amy out early one and suspected Tamar, but knew it was Spratt-Williams when LIsa spoke about her argument with Vivian and I connected it to Amy's comment about SW not needing to worry anymore.

The tea scene was nerve racking, but Sarah handled herself well. It was clear that SW had lost her mind - probably due to losing her social standing after her husband's scandal.
