This book has renewed my love for mystery novels. What a great book club pick this month. After reading "The Guest List" earlier this year and really enjoying it I was really excited for "The Paris Apartment. Talk about mysterious.
Jess, looking to escape her life, in London, makes contact with her brother Ben, who reluctantly offers her a place to stay in his apartment in Paris. Upon arrival to the apartment Ben has disappeared. in her quest to find her brother, Jess seeks answers from the neighbours in this swanky apartment complex, where she wonders if Ben could even afford.
The cast of characters Sophie, The concierge, Mimi, Jacques, Nick and Antoine were amazing to read about and uncover.
I love books with short chapters and this book was perfect for that because it kept me interested and wanting to read on to the end quickly. Lucy Foley has my attention so far. I hope to read "The Hunting Party" next because I really like this style of writing mystery novels.
This is a really good book.
