I have to disagree with the the reviews that found this book slow & boring . This was THE book to stay up past my bedtime reading under the covers on a cold, snowy night! This book truly surprised me, I really thought there were some great plot twists! I alternated between the audio and the physical book, and the narrators on the audio were fantastic, so perhaps that’s why I didn’t find this book as boring as other reviewers.

Wanted to love it, but just a bit too slow for me. I loved Mimi's story, but Sophie fell a bit flat for me. Jess was annoying and kind of ditsy. I also didn't love Bens character either, which made it hard for me to really care about if he got found or not.
Solid 3 for me. I'd like to read more of Foleys work, I've heard a lot of good stuff about her other books, so maybe those will be winners.

I have to admit that I really like Lucy Foley’s writing style as she always keeps me guessing. What I particularly liked about this one was the atmosphere she created in the Paris apartment building. Jess was literally the only likable character in the book. In fact at points I so disliked Ben I didn’t really care what had happened to him, but Jess kept me going. A few too many loose ends in this one- 3.5 stars.
