When crafting her characters, Alice Feeney likes to get inside their minds, no matter how dark (except for all of the murdery bits). Today, we're sitting down with author Alice Feeney to talk about her newest thriller novel, Daisy Darker. She shares all about her lucky chocolate bars, why she fiercely protects the plot twist board, and why she punched a French doctor in the face. In Daisy Darker, the estranged Darker family gathers at Nana's crumbling coastal cottage to celebrate her 80th birthday. “Seaglass” stands alone on a tiny island, and at high tide the Darkers will be stuck together and cut off from the rest of the world for eight long hours. But when someone winds up dead, the rest of the family is left wondering: Who is the killer? Get Daisy Darker at bookofthemonth.com.
