 thrilling conversation with acclaimed author Lucy Foley as we delve into h
 er brand-new Miss Marple mystery\,&nbsp\;Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel.
 &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>High in the Swiss Alps\, accessible only by a single\, win
 ding railway\, stands the luxurious Grand Alpine Hotel. With glorious moun
 tain views and exclusive access to powdery slopes\, it draws guests from f
 ar and wide.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>The notorious actress.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>The high
 -flying politician.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>The society wife.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>The re
 ckless friend.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>The shrewd doctor.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>But not ev
 eryone is here for a winter holiday. Beneath the champagne and furs\, dark
  histories simmer\; old grudges emerge like cracks in the ice. And someone
  is watching from the shadows. A polite\, unassuming woman with an extraor
 dinary mind: Miss Marple. When a body is found and a blizzard cuts off all
  escape\, only Miss Marple can connect the clues before the killer strikes
  again. Because it isn&rsquo\;t a question of who has a motive\, but who&r
 squo\;s next&hellip\;</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>About the Author:</p>\n<p>Lu
 cy Foley is a No.1&nbsp\;Sunday Times\,&nbsp\;Irish Times&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;

 el\,&nbsp\;she was inspired to transport Miss Marple &ndash\; her favorite
