Answer.  I came back to the hotel. ]]> 2017-11-09 18:02:25 UTC https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/205415484 sherlyesl https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/206883284 2017-11-14 18:20:54 UTC https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/206883284 sherlyesl https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/206887438 When Penny Wade arrives in Barcelona with the
Barston Symphony Orchestra she is upset to find
that her double bass has gone missing somewhere on
the journey from the UK. As a new member of the
orchestra she has been looking forward to this, her
first foreign tour, so when Simon Hunt, her on-off
boyfriend, offers to let her play in his place, she readily
accepts.

On the first day, Penny tries to persuade Simon to
go out with her around Barcelona. He refuses and is
behaving strangely. So Penny and her friend Adriana
spend the day at the beach. The first BSO concert goes
well. Simon is in the front row of the audience for the
first half and moves to the back for the second half.

That night everyone is woken to find that the popular
orchestra manager, Frank Shepherd, has fallen to his
death from a window in the hotel. As she leaves her
room to see what has happened, Penny sees someone
else in Adriana’s room.

Simon appears early the next morning and continues
to act strangely. Later that morning the attractive
Inspector Portillo questions everybody because what
happened to Frank is beginning to look not very much
like an accident at all.]]> 2017-11-14 18:27:50 UTC https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/206887438 sherlyesl https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/212480983 In the evening Penny overhears an argument between two other members of the orchestra, Marilyn Whittle and Candida Ashley-Morton. Marilyn is accusing Candida of killing Frank. 

The next day Simon has disappeared again. Inspector Portillo returns to the hotel and tells everyone what has happened. The orchestra players came by plane but the big instruments came by truck. When the truck drivers stopped for a break, two men broke into the truck and took out Penny’s double bass. They wanted a painting inside the case, worth £2 million, which had been stolen from the Tate Gallery in London. Simon’s cousin stole the painting and Simon put it in Penny’s double bass case. On the night of the concert Frank saw Simon in a bar, giving a Frenchman a large sum of money in an envelope. Frank phoned the police in London from his hotel room and then went to Simon’s room, where Simon pushed him out of the window]]> 2017-12-02 06:57:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/212480983 sherlyesl https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/214464699 Simon is captured by the police at Barcelona airport and Penny visits him in prison. He tells her he never wants to see her again. 

The BSO moves on to Bilbao and plays its last concert. Afterwards, while Penny and Adriana are out walking, they hear a familiar sound and discover some street musicians, one of whom has Penny’s double bass. Just as she has managed to get it back, a car arrives and Inspector Portillo gets out. He tells Penny he has one more question for her. Penny returns to England to think it over and the story concludes as Penny decides to return to Spain.]]> 2017-12-08 13:05:36 UTC https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/214464699 sherlyesl https://padlet.com/sherlyesl/DoubleBassMystery/wish/214481665 Post the answers in the comments.
