Mila and Ethan become stranded at a remote, dilapidated ski resort, only for Mila to wake up alone and realize she may not be as isolated as she initially believed. Mila's objective is to find her missing husband, Ethan, and escape the increasingly menacing environment of the abandoned resort. The primary forces opposing her are the isolation of the location, the unsettling atmosphere of decay, and the unknown presence that may be lurking. The physical constraints include the harsh winter conditions and the disrepair of the cabins, while the logical constraints involve deciphering the mystery of Ethan's disappearance and the resort's history. The narrative appears to be primarily driven by Mila's first-person perspective as she navigates her terrifying situation.
The reception for 'The Resort' indicates a highly engaging and suspenseful reading experience, with multiple NetGalley reviews highlighting its addictive nature and the gradual, effective build-up of a creepy atmosphere. Readers consistently praise the tension and the unexpected, shocking conclusion, with many reporting they were unable to put the book down and finished it in a single day. The novel is described as a twisty, page-turning mystery that keeps readers on the edge of their seats, featuring ample red herrings and a surprising resolution that is difficult to anticipate. The overall sentiment from these reviews suggests a gripping and thrilling narrative that delivers a memorable and impactful reading experience.
