The Paris Apartment by Lucy Foley

The Blurb On The Back:

In a beautiful old apartment block, deep in the backstreets of Paris, secrets are stirring behind every resident’s door.
The lonely wife.
The party animal.
The curtain-twitcher.
The secret lover.
The watchful caretaker.
The unwanted guest.

There was a murder here last night. Who holds the key to the mystery of apartment three?

( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

Lucy Foley’s standalone thriller starts off strong by showing what’s happened to Ben but ultimately fails to make good on its promise through a combination of unconvincing characters and a plot that doesn’t quite hold together. For me there’s just too much going on and when the revelations come they feel contrived rather than intriguing. It is a pacy read and I kept turning the pages but I did not enjoy this as much as I have her other thrillers.
