4 BRITONS DEAD IN SKI RESORT TRAGEDY
The exclusive French ski resort of St Antoine was rocked by news of a second tragedy this week, only days after an avalanche that killed six and left much of the region without power for days.
Now, reports are emerging that in one remote ski chalet, cut off by the avalanche, a "house of horrors" situation was unfolding, leaving four Britons dead and two hospitalised.
What do you think, read more or pass? I just started this and am really enjoying it so far.
I just finished it. I thought the first 30% was a bit slow, but after that I really ended up liking it.
ReplyDeleteI love this author, and this one is on my list. Thanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI'd read more, sounds good!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this one--partly because of the setting which is pretty exotic for someone from the South. There is always an element of intrigue in isolated settings and the dispatching of characters "one by one."
ReplyDeleteI love this author! I have this latest novel in my NetGalley queue. Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me, Diane. I'm trying to decide which Ruth Ware novel will be my first right now, in fact, so this is good input.
ReplyDeleteMaybe for my husband who skied in the Alps as a young man.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely continue reading this one. I've been adding many books this week to my wishlist and this is another one.
ReplyDeleteI read more and more and more! This isn't my favorite Ware novel, but I liked it overall. Glad you're enjoying it.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like it would be a good read.
ReplyDeleteI'll wait to hear your final thoughts. With the exception of her debut, I'm not a fan of her books.
