Why read it?
1 author picked The Chalet as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Set over two time zones, this is about two brothers who went skiing, except one didn't return.
Twenty years later, a group of friends return to the same mountain and a body is found. I loved the dark, deceitful characters and how you didn’t know who to trust. Also, the snowy setting was just perfect.

From Miranda's list on The most chilling psychological thrillers set in ski resorts.
