THE COLLECTOR'S EDITION Pre-order now to receive your stunning limited edition hardback A must-have for all Lucy Foley and Agatha Christie fans *While stocks last. First print run only.* *** High in the Swiss Alps, with glorious mountain views and exclusive access to powdery slopes, the Grand Alpine Hotel draws guests from far and wide. The notorious actress The high-flying politician The inscrutable political wife The reckless friend The shrewd doctor But when a guest enters a gondola alive, only to be found dead at the top of the mountain, it's clear there's a killer in their midst. As tensions rise, and old grudges emerge like cracks in the ice, someone watches from the shadows. An unassuming woman with an extraordinary mind: Miss Marple. She suspects everyone in the hotel, and she's right to. For it isn't just a question of who has a motive, but who's next. Arriving 50 years after Agatha Christie's last MISS MARPLE novel was published, Lucy Foley's Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel is a landmark event. 'Lucy Foley is a master of her craft. She always leaves you guessing until the last page' Freida McFadden `So clever and so much fun. Fans of the original Miss Marple and Lucy Foley will be delighted!' Marian Keyes
'Lucy Foley is such a clever writer' Anthony Horowitz 'A cold-blooded murder mystery set in the icy alps, Foley channels the one-and-only Agatha Christie with precision and flair. I couldn't put it down!' Bonnie Garmus
'Foley has absolutely nailed Miss Marple. Dame Agatha Christie would be delighted!' Shari Lapena `A joy to be back with Miss Marple in this expertly crafted novel' Clare Leslie Hall Lucy Foley's book 'The Midnight Feast' was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 2025-06-30.
