The Paris Apartment
by Lucy Foley
I really like how Lucy Foley manages to take a seemingly basic whodunnit story and put her own fresh spin on it. I don’t think that’s an easy thing to do, especially in such an over saturated market but whenever I finish one of her books I’m always left thinking that she is clever.
This one has several viewpoints and also a multi narrated cast and each narrator was so good. Listening to the audio made for such an immersive experience for me, it’s steeped in French culture and hearing the sometimes French accents of the characters was chefs kiss. The apartment complex itself was a character on it’s own and added such a great sense of place and atmosphere that I felt like I was there beside the characters. It was a bit of a slow burn and towards the middle lost some steam but the ending picked up the pace again and lead to a satisfying conclusion. Overall a solid thriller for me and definitely one I can recommend.
