A weekend retreat at a cozy mountain lodge is supposed to be the perfect getaway . . . but when the storm hits, no one is getting away It's winter in the Catskills and Mitchell's Inn, nestled deep in the woods, is the perfect setting for a relaxing--maybe even romantic--weekend away. It boasts spacious old rooms with huge woodburning fireplaces, a well-stocked wine cellar, and opportunities for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, or just curling up with a good murder mystery. So when the weather takes a turn for the worse, and a blizzard cuts off the electricity--and all contact with the outside world--the guests settle in and try to make the best of it. Soon, though, one of the guests turns up dead--it looks like an accident. But when a second guest dies, they start to panic. Within the snowed-in paradise, something--or someone--is picking off the guests one by one. And there's nothing they can do but hunker down and hope they can survive the storm--and one another.

I liked this book, despite some of the reviews I would definitely recommend. It's a real whodunnit set in a claustrophobic, nowhere to go setting. It takes place at a hotel in the mountains during a huge snow storm that cuts off the electricity. The guests cannot leave during the storm and cannot call for help while the bodies start piling up. I didn't guess the killer till I was about 90 percent thru and that was only due to process of elimination. The reason I gave it 4 stars was because I felt the clues throughout the book could've been a little better or given the reader some idea of what the connection was.I felt the clues could have been presented better in a way the reader has that OMG moment when the killer is revealed but you don't really have that. Overall good book definitely recommend I liked it but I wanted to love it.
