At a wedding on a small deserted island off the coast of Ireland, tensions are rising. As the wedding progresses and becomes rowdy simmering secrets are revealed, all motives for murder. The victim is truly "villanous".
The murder doesn't take place until the end of the book. The question is not "whodunit?" but "why?".
It is a page-turner! ( )

Well, this was certainly fun! I’m not really a mystery genre reader, but on the recommendation of a fellow reader, I accepted the lend of this well-written, twisty book. I am generally pretty adept at figuring out where the plot is going and what is around the bend, but in this case, not once but twice, a huge twist knocked me off my feet. Quite enjoyable, The Guest List, a quick read, and one I would recommend. ( )

I struggled with this one and nearly didn't finish reading it. Ultimately I did, and I'm glad I did as it was an interesting conversion of stories in the end. I enjoyed getting the story from four different characters' points of view. I just didn't love the writing or the telling of the story. ( )

I could not put this book down, I started it on my lunch break and read all the way home and didn’t eat until it was finished. I was floored by how little I predicted and how many surprises there were at the end. I was expected one, and they just kept coming. Some of the “stags” or groomsmen blurred together a bit, but the rest of the characters were unique and easy to keep track of. Each chapter is from a different person’s perspective, and it was nice to have their names at the beginning of each one to keep them straight. This book started out on more of a gentle pace, but then it’s a riot right till the end.

Would fit The 52 Book Club's 2021 prompts:

1 – Set In A School
19 – Book With A Deckled Edge
23 – An Ending That Surprises You
25 – A Book With Multiple Character POV
29 – Featuring The Environment
32 – A Selfish Character
34 – A Book You’d Rate 5 Stars
41 – An Endorsement By A Famous Author On The Cover ( )

Foley...outdoes herself again with this page-turning thriller; it's like experiencing Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express and And Then There Were None rolled into one ... The island and the ancient folly where the wedding party stays are themselves characters, adding to the feeling of almost supernatural mystery and the unease that something is lurking in the shadows and getting ready to strike ... Only a handful of thriller writers can accomplish what Foley does here: weave a complex plot from the perspectives of eight characters plus an omniscient narrator without causing confusion or reader exhaustion when the plot bounces from one person to the next. Fans of Christie, Louise Penny, and Ruth Rendell will absolutely love this book, which doesn't reveal its secrets until the very last page.

Foley defers disclosing the murder victim’s identity until quite late, but she undercuts the suspense with obvious indications of who it is. The tension of the setup isn’t quite matched by the reveals, though the nicely creepy setting compensates somewhat. Readers seeking thrills will find plenty.
