Another locked room mystery. How could this one be any different than all of the others that seem to be popping up these days? Leave it to Ruth Ware to find a new way to put mystery and terror in something that has been done over and over. A beautiful setting in a chalet in the alps, a cast of characters there for a meeting/vacation who all but one still work for an internet company called snoop, and the chalet hostess and cook. Turns out the company is in the midst of a buyout offer and during a straw vote it is shown that all are not on the same side or on the side that they originally seemed to take. And then a severe avalanche strikes. They are totally isolated from the village and other chalets. No electricity, no internet, no phone signals and one person who was skiing alone is missing. Then, someone dies – murder or suicide is the question. There are secrets abound and as they are revealed you will jump back and forth thinking you know what will happen but you will most likely be wrong. Another great job by Ruth Ware.
