Darker Daisy: A Novel

Stephanie Racine's skillful narration enriches the atmospheric backdrop of this gripping dark mystery, as noted by AudioFile. With a repertoire that includes numerous New York Times, U.S., and U.K. bestselling audiobooks, Racine brings her seasoned voice to this program. Author Alice Feeney lends her voice to the acknowledgments section of the audiobook.

The latest offering from Alice Feeney, a bestselling author known as the Queen of Twists, unfolds with a compelling premise: a long-awaited family reunion turns deadly on a remote tidal island. Daisy Darker and her estranged relatives gather at their Nana's decaying gothic mansion to celebrate her 80th birthday. However, the joyous occasion takes a sinister turn when Nana is discovered dead at midnight during a raging storm. Soon after, another family member meets a similar fate, leaving the remaining Darkers trapped on the island with a murderer in their midst.

As secrets unravel and tensions mount, the Darker family must confront both their present peril and the buried mysteries of their past before the tide strands them for eight hours, revealing all. Feeney's narrative cleverly nods to Agatha Christie's classic "And Then There Were None," weaving a tale that promises unexpected twists and turns that will leave listeners spellbound.

Sarah Pinborough, acclaimed author of "Behind Her Eyes" and "Insomnia," praises Feeney's work, saying, "Wow! Echoes of Christie's And Then There Were None but turned into something wonderfully original and wrapped in a genuinely creepy dysfunctional family fairy-tale of a novel, this takes Feeney to the next level. I LOVED IT!"

Produced by Macmillan Audio in collaboration with Flatiron Books, this audiobook promises a chilling and unforgettable experience, blending Feeney's trademark suspense with Racine's evocative narration.
