I loved this book! It kept me guessing up until the very end who was murdering everyone. Read the entire book in a few hours.

A group of people gather at Mitchell's Inn in the Catskills. There is a blizzard brewing outside and bodies are starting to show up. This book reminded me of And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. With no cell phone service at this getaway hotel things start to get a little hairy. There are twists and turns that make it hard to pick the killer. The pages turned quickly as I tried to get to the end and it was a bit of a surprise for me! I have read The Couple Next Door and look forward to reading A Stranger in the House soon. I would also recommend this book to those who love mystery suspense.

This is the first book I've read by Shari Lapena, & I loved it!! She keeps your attention, & doesn't draw everything out with too many unimportant details. I am already looking for another book by this author!

A number of people are snowed in at a lodge in the countryside when they start getting murdered one by one. Total rip off of Agatha Christie's writing. I didn't care about any of the character and gave up around 80 pages in. Life is too short to waste time reading books that are of no interest! Not as good as her usual thrillers.

My first book by this author. Although some language I don't particularly care for but the story is a very good thriller/mystery. A real "who done it" type of story. It has a very interesting story line that pulls you in and hard to put down. I would not suggest reading late at night with minimal lighting, but that's just me.
