3.0

A dark psychological thriller that transforms a Christmas reunion into a tense exploration of buried secrets. When Sasha accepts an invitation to her old friend Gabby's remote Scottish lake house, she's forced to confront both her estranged friends and a horrific past event they've all tried to forget. While the pacing occasionally lags, Billie Piper's narration keeps the tension alive through this chilling holiday tale.

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
