I've long been a big fan of Lucy Foley, and though I haven't loved every book I did really like this one! The Midnight Feast follows several characters during the summer of 2010 and during the opening weekend of a luxury hotel experience (The Manor). Sprinkle in spooky local folklore and it's a slow build, but ultimately good thriller.
I enjoyed the stark difference between each narrator and the flashbacks being told in diary format. There were a few places that could have been edited down/out but overall this was an enjoyable, well written, tantalizing thriller.
