Hello and welcome to my 欧宝娱乐 page! I鈥檓 the author of the murder mystery thrillers The Midnight Feast, The Paris Apartment, The Guest List and The Hunting Party 鈥� as well as the historical novels The Book of Lost and Found, The Invitation and Last Letter from Istanbul.

I came to writing through a love of reading 鈥� I previously worked with books as a fiction editor, a literary agent鈥檚 assistant, a bookseller and a literary scout!

Inspired by trips to the West Country and local folklore I began plotting my latest novel, The Midnight Feast. A midsummer heatwave, a setting with a past, a reunion that takes a dark turn. And so The Midnight Feast came to life.

Thanks to brilliant readers around the world, my novels have sold over five million ...more

How do you deal with writer鈥檚 block?

Tell yourself that you're only going to write 100 or so words: if you've managed that, then you've achieved your goal. Then hopefully, once you start, thoughts will free up, your imagination will begin working, and you'll sail past that goal. Sometimes the days that turn out least auspiciously end up being my most productive ones. (less)

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?
Lucy Foley This is a really difficult question! I've just tried to respond to it in three different ways, and had to delete them all and start again. The answer 鈥辞谤别This is a really difficult question! I've just tried to respond to it in three different ways, and had to delete them all and start again. The answer is that inspiration came from many different places: family stories, trips to art galleries, reading about the eras involved, the characters themselves (who came to me before the plot), novels, my imagination. I wish that I could say there was a lightening bolt moment and the idea arrived fully formed but, to be honest, there were parts of the plot that didn't develop until well into the writing process. Arguably, though, that is all part of the fun! (less)
