The Midnight Feast by Lucy Foley
5.0
*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity*
Welcome to The Manor, the newest luxury getaway for the elite featuring garden to table food, state of the art spa amenities, world class entertainment, and a unique opportunity to explore the local scenery. Cultivated and created by the Hostess, Francesca Meadows with the assistance of her architect husband, Owen Dacre-- every guest is sure to feel like family during their stay.
Told through five alternating viewpoints, including the kitchen help/local boy, the owner, the husband, the guest, and the homicide detective-- an incredibly complex story of heartbreak, betrayal, murder, and revenge leaves only four of our narrators alive.
Lucy Foley has done it again! Full of her well-known twists and turns, THE MIDNIGHT FEAST was a delight from start to finish-- and it kept me guessing until the very last page. An intricately woven story featuring a small town, local folklore (of the deadly variety), haunted woods, and someone seeking revenge, this might just be one of my new favorite thrillers. Foley does a wonderful job of creating the perfect ambience, developing her characters (in complex and incredibly surprising ways!), and building tension, creating a page-turning ending that left me satisfied but desperate for more.
