Four best friends, all with secrets to hide, embark on a vacation to remember at a beautiful old château in the scenic countryside of Provence. It’s been 20 years since Darcy and her friends have stayed with Darcy’s grandmother Séraphine at her château. One day, Darcy, Arabelle, Jade, and Vix all unexpectedly receive invitations from Séraphine, and they each have a personal reason to accept the invitation. The vacation seems perfect with all the wineries, lavender fields, markets, and dinners—until Séraphine is found viciously murdered. While the friends try to figure out who murdered Séraphine, a mysterious Instagram account surfaces, exposing private moments from the vacation and threatening to reveal more. The old château holds many secrets, including the murderer and stalker. Can Darcy and her friends find out who the murderer is before someone else winds up dead?
VERDICT While the plot in this novel from Goldis (When We Were Young) is unique, it is slow-paced and filled with clichés and unlikable characters. Avid mystery and suspense readers will be able to predict the ending, but some readers will enjoy the twists and turns.
