Have been meaning to read this for years finally getting around to it and finding it hard to put down. Makes me want to visit the Dolomites.

I‘ve seen mixed reviews, but I loved this book. It‘s a twisty thriller set in a remote village in the Dolomite mountains of northern Italy. The setting is just as much of a character as any of the people, and it is a menacing presence, and I found the writing smooth and engaging. 4 1/2 stars.
Hoping to get through this and and the rest of the Heads Will Roll audiobook this week! #weeklyforecast
I received an uncorrected proof of this novel at Bouchercon 2017. And hoo boy I hope it was corrected! It definitely needed a copyedit. The story itself was OK; I liked the setting and the mountain rescue aspect, but I found Salinger annoying at times (particularly when talking about sex). It also got a bit far-fetched at the end.

Slow-burning mystery about a man who becomes obsessed with the unsolved murders of three young people in 1985. Set in the Italian Dolomites, the story has a mounting sense of almost claustrophobic dread, as it moves towards what really happened. Rating: 4/5.
Thanks to Netgalley and Quercus Books for the opportunity to read an ARC.
