About this listen

“She thought it was their first Christmas together, it turned out to be her last…”

When Emma joins her new boyfriend Michael for a ‘Friendmas’ in the Alps, she’s quickly thrust into an exclusive world of privilege, partying, and politics. Emma can't ski and is out of place among the close-knit group, but she's determined to win them over.

Without the usual headache of extended family members, Brussels sprouts, and unwanted gifts, the group turn back the clock and unwind with wild abandon. As a storm gathers outside, the friends begin to re-trace their past, prodding at memories and feelings that have long been buried.

When the house wakes on Christmas morning, they find one of their party dead. No one is allowed to leave. As the snow piles up, the evidence of the night before begins to disappear and with it goes the ability to distinguish friend from foe.

As the group turn on her, Emma must find a way out before the killer finds her.

From the million-copy bestseller Claire McGowan, and performed by Hayley Atwell, comes a white-knuckled thriller that asks how far people are prepared to go to keep their stories hidden.

Enjoyed this book a lot. Couldn't guess 'who did it'. After a few so so books in the audible plus section, this was a delight.

Excellent narration.

If you’re looking for something Christmassy this isn’t. Just set that time of year. Short enough to listen to in one go. Good plot.

Different and enjoyable

McGowan cleverly captures the claustrophobic environment of a ski chalet in a snowstorm with a group of seriously toxic people. The tension ratchets up a brilliant pace. I literally couldn't tear myself away. Beautiful narration too. Highly recommend.

Riveting read

Good story with plenty of suspense and an enjoyable listen - a modern day Agatha Christie.

Good Whodunnit

If you are looking for a pleasant read, then this is a good pick. It won't blow your mind or stand out as the greatest literary work of all time. But it is entertaining, the reader has a really good voice and the storyline is nice enough to keep you interested.

Excellent reader and a decent story
