Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel
(2026)(The first book in the New Miss Marple Mysteries series)
A novel by Lucy Foley
"Lucy Foley channels the one-and-only Agatha Christie with precision and flair. I couldn't put it down!" — Bonnie Garmus, #1 New York Times bestselling author
The brand-new Miss Marple mystery from Lucy Foley, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Guest List and The Midnight Feast.
High in the Swiss Alps, accessible only by a single, winding railway, stands the luxurious Grand Alpine Hotel. With glorious mountain views and exclusive access to powdery slopes, it draws guests from far and wide.
The notorious actress.
The high-flying politician.
The society wife.
The reckless friend.
The shrewd doctor.
But not everyone is here for a winter holiday.
Beneath the champagne and furs, dark histories simmer; old grudges emerge like cracks in the ice.
And someone is watching from the shadows. A polite, unassuming woman with an extraordinary mind: Miss Marple.
When a body is found and a blizzard cuts off all escape, only Miss Marple can connect the clues before the killer strikes again. Because it isn’t a question of who has a motive, but who’s next…
