The Paris Apartment by Lucy FoleyRead about the other entries on the list.
Admittedly, the title of this one was reason enough for me to pick it as an audiobook when it came out in 2023 — even though I’m usually not a mystery reader! But a missing resident of a Paris apartment, and a building full of cryptic, stonewalling residents? I was hooked. The heroine, Jess, arrives in Paris only to find that her brother Ben — who extended the invitation to his apartment — is missing. If you like a locked-room (locked-building?) mystery, The Paris Apartment scratches that itch, with really deft character work by Foley, who knows how to luxuriate in details while still keeping pace with the twists and turns of the plot.
