The Murder Room

The Murder Room centers around the Dupayne Museum, which faces closure due to financial disputes among trustees. One trustee argues that funds spent on historical preservation should be redirected to current societal issues. The museum features a collection focused on murders from the interwar period, adding a chilling context to the unfolding events.
