I felt like I need a whiteboard and markers and I need to listen to this again. My brain hurts so much from figuring out what was going on during the last few chapters. It was free in my Audible subscription so gave it a try. The plot got me hooked - a friends reunion but they're all tied to a death in the past and one of them did it. And they're snowed in a cabin in the woods or something so nobody can leave. Very locked room mystery vibes. The writing was easy to follow, descriptive enough, but nothing to write home about. I had to repeat some chapters a few times as it got super confusing and hard to follow because the author felt the need to just DUMP all the twists and surprise info during the last 1 hr of the audiobook. I still enjoyed trying to figure out whodunnit.

This unexpectedly left the Plus catalog on Audible, and it honestly wasn’t holding my interest enough for me to pay for it.

All of the characters were either evil or whiny and the narration made it very hard to get through also
the phone signal coming back at the most opportune times took almost all of the suspense out
