Dripping with atmosphere, The Hunting Party is Lucy Foley's hotly-anticipated crime debut. A razor-sharp and chilling Highland murder mystery. Everyone's invited. Everyone's a suspect. Nine friends ring in the New Year in the remote Scottish Highlands. As the curtain falls on another year, the celebrations begin. The next 48 hours see the friends catching up, reminiscing over past stories, scratching old wounds . . . And guarding friendship-destroying secrets. The clock has barely struck 12 when a broken body is found in the snow. Not an accident a murder among friends. When a thick blizzard descends, the group are trapped. No-one can get in. And no-one can get out. Not even the killer. "A beautifully complex and vivid story, full of repressed longing and secrets." LUCINDA RILEY
