The Guest List by Lucy FoleyMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Agatha Christie was the first mystery author I read and loved. I loved those British mysteries whether set in a boat, on a train or at a house party. This book brought me right back to reading those beloved Christie stories.
The story takes place over two days on a desolate and possibly haunted island off the coast of Ireland. A wedding between two beautiful, up and coming, celebrities is about to happen. The wedding guests are friends and family who have mostly been kept apart from each other. Once all of the guests are together and the alcohol is flowing secrets start emerging and a character ends up dead. There are a host of possible and probable suspects. Clues are doled out sparingly and judiciously through the point of view chapters, and I was kept guessing until the end.
