Setting is French Alps St. Antoine ski resort. Eva Van den Berg and Topher St Clair-Bridges are co-owners of Snoop, an App company that allows members to listen to celebrities and other members' music playlists. Liz Owens has a 2% share also. This holiday has been planned as a way to have a meeting about a buy-out of the company. Eva and Topher are vying for Liz's vote. Before meeting they decide to ski the slopes as a major snow storm is about to hit. Eva goes missing and is presumed dead. Is Eva missing or has she been murdered? To complicate matters even more, the snow storm hits and causes an avalanche trapping them in the chalet without WIFI service. After two more murders, they decide there must be a serial killer amongst them.

Book has a slow start as characters are introduced but a very intense situation develops towards the end that keeps the pages turning. I had an obvious suspect in the beginning but expected a plot twist to change that which never came. I was a bit disappointed so the book lost a star from me. I found this book similar to Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None. Two POV narrators were very interesting but I expected a surprise ending.

I would like to thank NetGalley and Gallery/Scout Press Publishers for a free book for an honest review.
