O knihe

A remote mountaintop academic retreat in the French Alps turns deadly as a widowed Oxford fellow races to solve the dangerous secrets her husband left behind in the newest psychological suspense novel from the author of The French Girl.

The Chalet des Anglais seems to be the perfect place for Oxford fellow Emily to attempt to cut through the fog of her grief over the loss of her husband. Joining her at the Alps-based retreat will be a collection of their friends from the university as well as other fellows, graduates and undergraduates. With no electricity, running water or access by car, the rustic chalet will surely afford an unparalleled natural setting for Emily to rest and heal.

But even before she leaves home for the trip, Emily is unnerved by a break-in, and then shocked when, at the chalet, she witnesses an undergraduate student in a sexual liaison with a staff member that she counts as a friend. Someone has also been snooping through her things, making her question whether the earlier break-in was entirely coincidental. When the undergraduate student disappears, and she sees her deceased husband's number on her call history, Emily realizes she had better figure out who is targeting her and who she can trust - or the next disappearance might be her own.
