Someone knows what really happened that day.
And somebody will pay.
An exciting new debut for anyone who loves Ruth Ware, Lucy Foley, and C.L. Taylor
Absolutely Delicious! 
Now, here’s a novel to get your teeth into – it’s full of surprises!
In 1998, to young men went skiing in the French Alps, but only one came back. Twenty years later, a house party stay in a chalet in the same village. There are no obvious connections between the two but, like stains, it all comes out in the wash.
Absolutely delicious! This is a book which starts off with two stories, twenty years apart but in the same location; as I got to know the characters my interest piqued and before I knew where I was I was speeding up my reading, desperate to find out where it was heading but even in my wildest imagination, I couldn’t have predicted that! A well-paced novel which reels in the reader and it is a very good read! Catherine Cooper is definitely an author to watch out for, and I’m happy to give this one 4.5*.
My thanks to the publisher for my copy via NetGalley; this is – as always – my honest, original and unbiased review.
