Summary
#1 NYT Bestselling Author “My favorite kind of whodunit, kept me guessing all the way through, and reminiscent of Agatha Christie at her best — with an extra dose of acid.” — Alex Michaelides, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Silent Patient

From the author of the Reese Witherspoon book club pick The Guest List

Everyone's invited...everyone's a suspect...

During the languid days of the Christmas break, a group of thirtysomething friends from Oxford meet to welcome in the New Year together, a tradition they began as students ten years ago. For this vacation, they’ve chosen an idyllic and isolated estate in the Scottish Highlands—the perfect place to get away and unwind by themselves.

The trip begins innocently enough: admiring the stunning if foreboding scenery, champagne in front of a crackling fire, and reminiscences about the past. But after a decade, the weight of secret resentments has grown too heavy for the group’s tenuous nostalgia to bear. Amid the boisterous revelry of New Year’s Eve, the cord holding them together snaps, just as a historic blizzard seals the lodge off from the outside world.

Two days later, on New Year’s Day, one of them is dead. . . and another of them did it.

Keep your friends close, the old adage says. But how close is too close?

DON'T BE LEFT OUT. JOIN THE PARTY NOW.

The story moves along at a great pace with interesting characters and dialogue. The narration is excellent! I love the accents.

Loved the twists in the story. We were kept guessing who the person could have been, and the people were eliminated once by one at good intervals. Gripping read

Read this after thoroughly enjoying her other book, The Guest List. The format was the same… bring a group of people to an isolated place, raise suspicion on all the characters, keep the murdered victim a secret ‘til the end then the most unsuspected character is revealed as the culprit. So disappointing.

Listened to this on my commute. I enjoyed it. Kept me guessing until the end.

pretty solid murder mystery. Neat trick of the author allows a dual timeline narrative without (completely) giving away the identity of the victim. The characters are particularly horrible people and listening to their worlds fall apart is delightful - I only wish the body count was higher. A full-cast narration is always a treat.

Perfect for holiday reading!

Could not stop listening- really enjoyed this book. The narration was fantastic.

Profile Avatar Katie H. Mar 2021

Great twist at the end and kept me interested but was a bit on the too descriptive side.

Profile Avatar Savannah C. Jan 2021

Narration was wondrous, and the story was presented by the author in the way a classic thriller is supposed to unfold. Absolutely wonderful story telling, from multiple points of view!

Profile Avatar Cloverlily17 Nov 2020

Great story, incredible suspense! I love the changing points of view from different characters, voice by different narrators! I highly recommend!

Profile Avatar Linda M. Jul 2020

This is a very well constructed who-done-it - so much so, that the reader isn't even sure who was murdered let alone who did it until the very end. The narration is excellent. I like the setting (Scotland at New Year's Eve) and the writer shaped each of the characters to be very different from each other. One feels that one knows Miranda - we have all met her...

Lucy Foley is a great writer. The story was intriguing and the character development was excellent

Profile Avatar Eva P. Nov 2019

Such a fun book! Perfect for holiday reading!

Profile Avatar Jeff S. Apr 2019

An okay novel. Accents were great. We had to write down characters to follow and maintain context. Final twist was intriguing - but dragged out to get to it.
