I enjoyed this book, it has the typical Lucy Foley style, it may start a little bit too similar to her previous book, however it is not a redundancy or a repetition. I like The Guest List better, however, this book is still very enjoyable.
The cast of characters is more diverse than in her previous work, and the setting is realistic, really aids with the feeling of being helpless in a foreign place. The plot was a bit predictable, however the ending was definitely surprising.
It does read a bit slower than one might like, the middle chapters do drag a bit, and Jess goes from being very stupid to very smart too easily to be believable. I wish she had a better memory, but I enjoyed her character nonetheless.
I will most likely read more books from this author.
