In this chilling thriller from New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh, a remote estate in New Zealand´s Southern Alps hosts a reunion no one will ever forget.
Seven friends.
One last weekend.
A mansion half in ruins.
No room for lies.
Someone is going to confess.
Because there should have been eight. . . .
They met when they were teenagers. Now they´re adults, and time has been kind to some and unkind to others-none more so than to Bea, the one they lost nine long years ago.
They´ve gathered to reminisce at Bea´s family´s estate, a once-glorious mansion straight out of a gothic novel. Best friends, old flames, secret enemies, and new lovers are all under one roof. But when the weather turns and they´re snowed in at the edge of eternity, there´s nowhere left to hide from their shared history.
As the walls close in, the pretense of normality gives way to long-buried grief, bitterness, and rage. Underneath it all, there´s the nagging feeling that Bea´s shocking death wasn´t what it was claimed to be. And before the weekend is through, the truth will be unleashed-no matter the cost. . . .
