This too, however, came to a sudden and ruinous end. The only thing that used to help her feel better was visiting her grandmother Evie in the nursing home she lived in. To no one’s surprise, she was devastated by this event and she had been stuck in her grief for a long time. It went on the shelves in 2015 and is a romance/mystery story with a historical setting.Īt the heart of this story is Kate Darling, who has just lost her mother. The most interesting thing to know about this piece is that it was the first published book by the author. I am carrying on with the article and the second book I am going to take a look at will be The Book of Lost and Found, another one of the best selling Lucy Foley books.

Overall, this is a strong contender for the best Lucy Foley book title despite how hard it is to include this many narratives in a story. She also continues to build up the tension in the setting by turning the island into its scariest version, with a haunted past and the ongoing storm.

All Hell Breaks Looseįrom that point on, the author lets all hell break loose as she switches the narrative from character to character and exposes their secrets. What is more, is that this creepy encounter is only the start of a series of huge crises. The ushers of the event are promptly sent out to figure out what is going on but the event proves to be more challenging to resolve. This would normally just be a bummer but given the fact that they are on an inhabited island with no infrastructure, the celebrity couple and their guests find themselves in a bit of a situation.Īs everyone at the party is thinking of just how much trouble they are in, one of the waitresses makes it clear that it is a whole lot. The storm itself thankfully does not harm any of the couples’ friends or family but it does cause their electricity to go out. The wedding goes exactly as Aoife, the organizer of the event, planned until an unexpected storm hits the island. They are a celebrity couple in all the meanings of the word. While Jules is the owner of a massive web magazine, Will is a rising television star. There, Julia “Jules” Keegan and Will Slater are having a stylish wedding. This one of the best novels by Lucy Foley takes its readers to an isolated and wild island that is just a ways away from the coast of Ireland. It received countless positive reviews and it was also presented as a nominee for the New York Times Best Thrillers of 2020 and CWA Gold Dagger Award. Appearing in New York Times and Washington Post’s bestseller lists immediately after publication, it was a clear success. I thought it would be best to start off the article by sharing my two cents about one of the most popular Lucy Foley books, The Guest List.
