Daisy Darker was my final pick for Spooky Season reading (though really, that doesn't stop year-round). Alice Feeney remains a favourite thriller author with reason!
Daisy's Nana's island home of Seaglass provides the backdrop for the story, which takes place in the hours leading to Halloween. Members of the Darker family are meeting their demise and secrets from the past may be contributing.
Some fantastic atmosphere and reveals here - fans of Agatha Christie and Tessa Wegert will most appreciate!
Absolutely recommended!
