I've read a few books by her and liked them all.

This one was great! I did figure out a lot of what was going on, but still wanted to read on and on to see what would happen next!

A suspenseful read that takes place in the chilly Rocky Mountains. Had a cast of believable characters and the setting kept a constant iciness on the back of my neck. The ending was possible but seemed a bit far-fetched for my liking. Other than that, I really enjoyed the story.

When Christa joins a tour group heading deep into the snowy expanse of the Rocky Mountains, she's hopeful this will be her chance to put the ghosts of her past to rest. But when a bitterly cold snowstorm sweeps the region, the small group is forced to take shelter in an abandoned hunting cabin. Despite the uncomfortably claustrophobic quarters and rapidly dropping temperature, Christa believes they'll be safe as they wait out the storm. She couldn't be more wrong. Deep in the night, their tour guide goes missing...only to be discovered the following morning, his severed head impaled on a tree outside the cabin. Terrified, and completely isolated by the storm, Christa finds herself trapped with eight total strangers. One of them kills for sport...and they're far from finished. As the storm grows more dangerous and the number of survivors dwindles one by one, Christa must decide who she can trust before this frozen mountain becomes her tomb.
This is a standalone book by Darcy Coates. It is a suspenseful thriller packed with surprises that made me want to read it in one sitting. The ending was a complete surprise and filled me with fear as I read it. The characters seemed very real to me and I had a hard time picking out the killer. I'm now looking forward to another read by this author. If you like suspense with your thrillers then you will love this book.
