The Guest List by Lucy Foley

A High-Tension Wedding Celebration on a Windswept Irish Island

On a remote, rugged island off the coast of Ireland, guests gather under a luxury marquee to celebrate the high-profile wedding of a rising television star and an ambitious magazine publisher. Every detail has been expertly planned, from the boutique whiskey to the designer dress, but spotty cell service and rough Atlantic waves hint at the isolation to come. As the champagne flows and old school drinking games begin, hidden resentments and petty jealousies mingle with the well-wishes until a dead body is discovered. This atmospheric psychological wedding thriller audiobook utilizes alternating points of view from the bride, the best man, the bridesmaid, and the wedding planner to construct a dark, modern puzzle reminiscent of classic drawing-room mysteries.
