I really enjoyed the contrast between the narrators: one is a bit of a loner and very perceptive, and the other is socially awkward and has a hard time picking up on social cues. Worse yet, a snooper hadn’t made it away from the slope when he hit the avalanche.Īs each hour passes with no sign of rescue, panic mounts, the chalet grows colder, and the group continues to shrink…one by one.
However, the storm brewing inside the chalet can’t match the outside, and a devastating avalanche cuts the group off from any access to the outside world. When the co-founder of Snoop, a trendy London tech startup, organizes a week-long trip to the French Alps for the team, it begins as a corporate retreat like any other: PowerPoint presentations and strategy sessions, punctuated by mandatory bonding at the slopes But as soon as a shareholder changes the agenda by proposing a lucrative but controversial takeover bid, tensions boil and loyalty is tested. Unless this company has eight employees… everyone has something to gain, something to lose, and something to hide. Especially when there are stunning views, a full-service chef and housekeeper, a cozy fire to keep you warm, and others to keep you company. Snowing in a luxurious, rustic ski chalet high in the French Alps doesn’t seem like the worst problem in the world.
