About the Author
Amy Stuart's fourth novel, A Death at the Party, emerged as a longstanding #1 bestseller. She is the author of three other bestselling novels--Still Mine, Still Water, and Still Here--which have been optioned for television by Lark/NBC Universal. Amy's other love is hockey. She is one of only four women head coaches in the GTHL, the world's largest youth competitive hockey league. She was born in Toronto, where she still lives with her husband and their three sons. They also spend much of their time on Prince Edward Island, where Amy's family is originally from. Find her on X @AmyFStuart.
Reviews
"Tense and twisting, with a sophistication that belies its darkness, A Death at the Party is much like the hostess of the titular party at its core: elegant and beautiful but hiding so many secrets. Prepare to be captivated by this masterful and shocking collision of past and present and the lies that can no longer stay buried."
-- LAURIE ELIZABETH FLYNN, bestselling author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here
"Virginia Woolf meets Agatha Christie in this taut psychological thriller."
-- Publishers Weekly
"Not only did I read this book in a single day, I read it in a single sitting. . . . Stuart cleverly turns the classic whodunit on its head; in this case we know who the murderer is--the victim's identity is the question mark. . . . A chilling exploration of how we cope with the things we've done, as well as those that have been done to us."
-- STEPHANIE WROBEL, internationally bestselling author of Darling Rose Gold
"What a mad delight this book is--so seductive and twisted. Highly recommended!"
-- SHARI LAPENA, New York Times bestselling author of Not a Happy Family
"A terrific family drama. I adored it--absolutely compulsive reading as all the family skeletons are clamouring to get out of the cupboard. I inhaled this book over twenty-four hours."
-- LIZ NUGENT, international bestselling author of Strange Sally Diamond and Little Cruelties
"A superb masterpiece. A Death at the Party brilliantly unfolds over the course of a single day, featuring a deliciously imperfect protagonist untwining her past as she prepares for the party of her life. Stuart's crisp writing and tightly paced plot made me hold my breath from the first line to the last. . . This is an absolutely stand-out book by a phenomenal talent."
-- SAMANTHA M. BAILEY, #1 bestselling author of Watch Out for Her and Woman on the Edge
"For fans of Gillian Flynn and Ashley Audrain, A Death at the Party is razor-sharp and salaciously riveting. A jigsaw puzzle of a story that will hook you instantly and reward you with a shattering, satisfying conclusion."
-- MARISSA STAPLEY, New York Times bestselling author of Lucky
"Ominous and intimate . . . the rare kind of read that's a mood in itself, with tension that dances just perfectly until the end. Immersive and so sharply observed, Amy Stuart delivers a gorgeous literary thriller to devour."
-- ASHLEY AUDRAIN, New York Times bestselling author of The Push
"This is Stuart's fourth novel, and it marks a definite talent. This one should be on the best book lists for the year."
-- The Globe and Mail
"Stuart is part of a smart coterie of Canadian women who write highly entertaining books that never talk down to their readers."
-- Toronto Star
