Snow glows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation
And it looks like I’m the queen
Let It Go, Idina Menzel
The story begins with an introduction to the ABOUT team of Snoop, all 9 of them including Liz an ex-employee and shareholder of the company. As the story unfolds thru Liz and Erin, the reader is given tantalizing glimpses of the mini-camps inside the company and the underneath resentments that explodes out of the cauldron.
The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Let It Go, Idina Menzel
Very soon a partner is missing as the avalanche forces everyone in close proximity and with no means of communication to the rescue team, pointed fingers raising suspicion and discontentment. As the mystery deepens and becomes more darker, someone is picking one guest after another for reasons unknown.
Let the storm rage on
Let It Go, Idina Menzel
Ruth Ware’s writing is effortless and the claustrophobic terror is conveyed wonderfully even though half of the things regarding skating and techniques were totally Greek and Latin to me. Those were the parts that I really wanted to skip and kind of reduced the panicky intensity in the story. What I absolutely loved is that the story adds to the drama even after the murderer is unveiled. The reveal, honestly feels a tad underwhelming after all that build-up of pressure. However, the final few pages with skiing and chasing had my heart galloping at a breakneck speed.
Winter is almost here, many of the places in the world covered in a vison of white, and this book is the perfect pick for a snow-laden dark night, OK, even without any snow, like in India here, where the crazy weather is playing havoc with my reading thrill! LOL😹😹😹
