Overview
This two-book hardcover set brings together two of Lucy Foley's most gripping mystery thrillers. Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel reimagines Agatha Christie's Miss Marple in a snowbound Swiss ski resort where a killer hides among glamorous guests, while The Paris Apartment traces a young woman's search for her missing brother through a Montmartre apartment building where every neighbor is hiding something. Together they showcase Foley's signature locked-room suspense, atmospheric settings, and twisty, page-turning plotting that have made her a reader favorite on both sides of the Atlantic.
About the Books
Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel is Lucy Foley's highly anticipated continuation of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple series, the first full-length Marple novel in fifty years. Set at an isolated, luxurious hotel high in the Swiss Alps, the story follows a group of guests each carrying old grudges and hidden secrets. When a body is discovered after a guest boards a gondola alive and is later found dead at the summit, it falls to the shrewd and unassuming Miss Marple to untangle who among the glittering cast of suspects is a killer before they strike again. Foley channels Christie's classic whodunit style while giving the beloved detective a fresh, modern showcase. The Paris Apartment follows Jess, a young woman who arrives in Paris expecting to stay with her half-brother Ben, only to find his apartment empty and signs that something is very wrong. As Jess digs into Ben's disappearance, she discovers that every resident of the elegant Montmartre building has secrets of their own, and that someone close to home may be responsible for his vanishing. Told through shifting points of view and tight, fast-moving chapters, it is a claustrophobic, intricately plotted thriller that builds toward a shocking reveal. Both novels highlight why Lucy Foley has become one of the most read mystery authors writing today, pairing immersive European settings with ensemble casts where everyone is a suspect. This set suits readers who enjoy classic whodunits reinvented for modern audiences alongside tense, contemporary locked-room suspense.
