Seriously, this author ought to write for an architectural magazine.

The very best parts of this book were the descriptions of the hotel and the surrounding areas. There was even a minute or two in the beginning when I thought I might like it…but…that didn’t last long. Other people have really loved this book! I’m just not one of them. However, this is only my opinion which may be opposite of your own. I always feel weird giving a negative review…but I’ve got to be honest. Kidnappings and murders ensue and Elin must figure out what is happening. The people left at the hotel are cut off from help. It is located high in the rugged Swiss Alps at the top of a mountain road that is treacherous in the best of circumstances.Ī snowstorm strikes the area shortly after Elin and her boyfriend arrive and due to the threat of avalanche not everyone in the hotel is able to be evacuated.

Le Sommet is a new, minimalist, modern and incredibly creepy hotel which was created from what was once a tuberculosis sanatorium. The reader is made to believe that Elin hopes that seeing her brother can give her some clarity into not only their relationship, but her current situation, and her troubling past.Įlin and her boyfriend, Will, travel to the site of the celebration, Le Sommet. She believes that her estranged brother, Isaac, was in some way responsible for the death of her other brother.ĭespite that, when Elin receives an invitation to attend Isaac’s engagement party she decides to attend. She is struggling not only with the job issues, but also with circumstances from her past and her present relationships. In addition to the PTSD acquired from this particular incident, the detective seems to have always had an unsettled soul. I read The Sanatorium on my Kindle and purchased it from AmazonĮlin Warner is a detective who is currently on a leave of absence from her job due to a case that went badly…it was a situation that almost cost Elin her life and was caused in many ways by her own inability to cope.
