A retreat doesn't always mean safety...

Following the death of her husband, Emily is happy to find herself surrounded by friends and fellow Oxford peers at the rustic Chalet des Anglais in the French Alps. With no electricity, running water, or access by car, surely this trip will offer her the time and space she needs to heal.

But before she makes it to the airport, Emily interrupts a break-in at her home, and on the first night at the chalet, she discovers an inappropriate sexual liaison between an undergrad and a colleague. When the student suddenly disappears, and Emily sees her deceased husband's number in her call history, she realises she had better figure out who she can trust - or the next disappearance may be her own...

Bright and Deadly Things by Lexie Elliott is a thrilling tale of suspense and intrigue that will keep readers on the edge of their seats.
