"Sharp, stylish and stunning...Foley's best yet." —Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of All the Colors of the Dark

"It is an absolute bonkers delight (and I haven’t even mentioned the local bird cult yet …)." — NPR, Best Books of the Year

Secrets. Lies. Murder. Let the festivities begin…

It’s the opening night of The Manor, the newest and hottest luxury resort, and no expense, small or large, has been spared. The infinity pool sparkles; the ''Manor Mule’ cocktail (grapefruit, ginger, vodka, and a dash of CBD oil) is being poured with a heavy hand. Everyone is wearing linen.

But under the burning midsummer sun, darkness stirs. Old friends and enemies circulate among the guests. Just outside the Manor’s immaculately kept grounds, an ancient forest bristles with secrets. And it’s not too long before the local police are called. Turns out the past has crashed the party, with deadly results.

THE GIRLBOSS · THE HUSBAND · THE KITCHEN HELP · THE MYSTERY GUEST

Everyone’s got a secret. Everyone’s got an agenda. But not everyone will survive…The Midnight Feast

"Foley’s usual techniques of unraveling the central mystery through multiple timelines and narrators are paralleled by the spiraling events of the weekend, which careen from juice shots and yoga on the lawn to a chaotic climax at a hallucinogen-fueled bacchanal where hidden identities and multiple murders are brought to light. It is an absolute bonkers delight" — NPR


Genre: Mystery

Praise for this book

"The Midnight Feast by Lucy Foley has it all... an isolated hotel, a coven of intriguing guests, a family with secrets and a community with scores to settle... while an ancient woodland masking secrets of its own looms all around. This is crime writing at its finest. An intoxicating dose of mystical hedonism gives the story and characters a vibrant darkness and depth that keeps the thrills coming. I flew through it, this fun and fiendish, five star feast of a read." - Janice Hallett

"The Midnight Feast is Foley's most unputdownable thriller yet. Delicious and darkly glamorous, and full of brilliant twists." - Lisa Jewell

"Thriller fans rejoice: Lucy Foley is back with another fantastic novel. I devoured The Midnight Feast with a smile on my face. Rarely has murder been so much wicked fun. It has everything you want from a Lucy Foley thriller: a glamorous location, an entertaining cast of characters brought to life with a terrific sense of humor, an undercurrent of witchy menace -- and an unsolved murder. This is the perfect book to take on holiday. Just count yourself lucky you're not staying at The Manor..." - Alex Michaelides

"An atmospheric, tantalizing thriller peopled with utterly recognizable characters, all of them hiding something about themselves and their connection to the eerie Manor hotel in Dorset." - Nita Prose

"A sharp, stylish and stunning murder mystery. Darkly funny, with trademark twists and unforgettable characters, The Midnight Feast is Lucy Foley's best yet." - Chris Whitaker
