The claustrophobic confines of a ski resort during a cold, dark winter, with the resort being battered by one of the worst snowstorms in years, closing the only road, and isolating everyone within, added much to the atmosphere. I’m not always a fan of dual timelines, but with The Chalet, it worked really well. After an avalanche, a body is discovered, but is it linked to the disappearance of the brother in 1998? The group of people we meet this time around are taking a luxurious holiday together, none of them actually get on, but most importantly four of them are linked to the missing brother. This sets the scene perfectly for this claustrophobic thriller from Catherine Cooper. It’s not the best of holidays, as the brothers have always had a difficult relationship, they argue constantly, and sadly, only one of the brothers returns home.įast forward to 2020, where we return to the same resort, in the midst of a vicious snowstorm, with the only road into the resort blocked. The story begins in 1998, in La Madiere, a ski resort in the French Alps, where brothers Will and Adam Cassiobury have taken their girlfriends on holiday.
