Another page turner from Lucy Foley that has you thinking about myths and the supernatural.
An exclusive spa hotel is celebrating its opening with a midnight feast on midsummer’s eve. The timeline jumps from the present to the recent and older past, as well as to the future, told from different viewpoints.
The locals are against the hotel and its owner, saying she paid off council members to get what she wanted, and bankrupted local businesses in the process.
Gradually we learn all is not what it seems, with any of the main characters and even knowing what is going to happen, we are not totally sure how we are going to get there.
These are not my favourite genre of books but an enjoyable, tense read all the same and fans of the author will find much to like
