A luxury mountaintop chalet
The opportunity of a lifetime
Until guests start to disappear…

**The unmissable new thriller from the queen of the modern-day murder mystery.**

Snow is falling in the exclusive alpine ski resort of Saint Antoine, as the shareholders and directors of Snoop, the hottest new music app, gather for a make or break corporate retreat to decide the future of the company. At stake is a billion-dollar dot com buyout that could make them all millionaires, or leave some of them out in the cold.

The clock is ticking on the offer, and with the group irrevocably split, tensions are running high. When an avalanche cuts the chalet off from help, and one board member goes missing in the snow, the group is forced to ask - would someone resort to murder, to get what they want?

Praise for Ruth Ware’s addictive thrillers:

'Ruth Ware just gets better and better’
Lisa Jewell, author of The People Upstairs

'Will hold you captive until the brilliant ending'
Shari Lapena, author of Someone We Know

‘Powerfully atmospheric, unguessably twisty’ Louise Candlish, bestselling author of Our House

Critics Review

  • A real spine-chiller that confirms Ruth Ware as the true heir to Christie’s crown. Ingenious plotting sees the body count rise and multiple suspects eliminated until we’re left with breathless game of cat-and-mouse.

    Erin Kelly, author of He Said, She Said
  • The sense of dread deepens as the snow falls in Ruth Ware’s tensely plotted and deliciously cast alpine thriller.

    Louise Candlish, author of Our House
  • A chilling, edge-of-your-seat thriller. Agatha Christie would have been up all night reading this one!

    Shari Lapena, author of The Couple Next Door
  • Chilling, claustrophobic and clever. This is Ruth Ware’s best yet.

    Jo Jakeman
  • What a read, oh my goodness, so fast paced, action packed, twisty-turny, modern, clever, scary and ingenious!

    Lisa Jewell, author of The People Upstairs
