Shari Lapena - An Unwanted Guest

 Mystery, Thriller





A remote lodge in upstate New York is the perfect getaway…until the bodies start piling up.

It’s winter in the Catskills, and the weather outside is frightful, but Mitchell’s Inn is so delightful! The cozy lodge nestled deep in the woods is perfect for a relaxing - maybe even romantic - weekend away. The inn boasts spacious old rooms with huge wood-burning fireplaces, a well-stocked wine cellar, and opportunities for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, or just curling up with a book and someone you love.So when the weather takes a turn for the worse and a blizzard cuts off the electricity - and all contact with the outside world - the guests settle in for the long haul. The power’s down, but they’ve got candles, blankets, and wood - a genuine rustic experience!Soon, though, a body turns up - surely an accident. When a second body appears, they start to panic. Then they find a third body. Within the snowed-in paradise, something - or someone - is picking off the guests one by one. They can’t leave, and with no cell service, there’s no prospect of getting the police in until the weather loosens its icy grip. The weekend getaway has turned deadly.For some couples, it’s their first time away. For others it will be their last. And there’s nothing they can do about it but huddle down and hope they can survive the storm.
