In this propulsive locked-room thriller debut, a reunion weekend in the French Alps turns deadly when five friends discover that someone has deliberately stranded them at their remote mountaintop resort during a snowstorm. When Milla accepts an off-season invitation to Le Rocher, a cozy ski resort in the French Alps, she' s expecting an intimate weekend of catching up with four old friends. It might have been a decade since she saw them last, but she' s never forgotten the bond they forged on this very mountain during a winter spent fiercely training for an elite snowboarding competition. Yet no sooner do Milla and the others arrive for the reunion than they realize something is horribly wrong. The resort is deserted. The cable cars that delivered them to the mountaintop have stopped working. Their cell phones--missing. And inside the hotel, detailed instructions await them: an icebreaker game, designed to draw out their secrets. A game meant to remind them of Saskia, the enigmatic sixth member of their group, who vanished the morning of the competition years before and has long been presumed dead. Stranded in the resort, Milla' s not sure what' s worse: the increasingly sinister things happening around her or the looming snowstorm that' s making escape even more impossible. All she knows is that there' s no one on the mountain she can trust. Because someone has gathered them there to find out the truth about Saskia. . . someone who will stop at nothing to get answers. And if Milla' s not careful, she could be the next to disappear. . .
"Allie Reynolds' aptly named debut Shiver sent chills up my spine! This taut and twisty thriller follows five former snowboarding champions trapped in a deserted ski resort, each hiding dark secrets about their shared past that pit them against one another. Cancel all your plans because once you pick up this page turner, you won' t be able to put it down until you' ve reached its shocking conclusion!"--Katherine St. John, author of The Lion' s Den "Five former friends who no longer trust each other are stranded on top of a mountain--what could go wrong? Every character is a suspect in this cleverly plotted page-turner. Reynolds' writing is so atmospheric; I could feel the snow in my eyes, the wind on my face! All hail the chiller thriller. "--Stephanie Wrobel, author of Darling Rose Gold A high-velocity, heart-in-your-mouth whodunnit that delivers not just twists and turns but McTwists and aerial spins, Shiver is a total joy to read. . . Perfect for fans of Lucy Foley and Ruth Ware. "--Anna Downes, author of The Safe Place"Exhilarating. A brilliant combination of knife-sharp locked room mystery with a will they/won' t storyline. So cleverly done - I felt like I was there. "--Harriet Tyce, author of Blood Orange "In Shiver, Allie Reynolds manages to combine the excitement of a clever, compelling story with all the thrills of competitive snowboarding. I loved it. "--Rachel Abbott, author of The Murder Game "A white-knuckle-ride through a dangerous world full of deadly ambition. "--Erin Kelly, author of He Said, She SaidAn absolutely gripping read and genuinely unputdownable. . .
