'Queen of the chiller thriller' - Veronica Henry, author of The Secret Beach
From bestselling author Ruth Kelly, The Ice Retreat is a spine-tingling thriller set in the world of controversial wellness treatments. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Sarah Pearse.Ruth Kelly is a journalist who has ghosted a string of Sunday Times top ten bestsellers - with The Prison Doctor having sold over 250,000 copies, and The Governor, going straight in at number one on the Amazon charts. Her thriller The Escape was a Richard and Judy Book Club selection.
She was inspired to write The Ice Retreat after visiting the famous Piz Gloria - a revolving restaurant high in the Swiss Alps - where they filmed James Bond's On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Holiday destinations feature heavily in Ruth's thriller writing having spent most of her life traveling and exploring the world. Her family relocated to Papua New Guinea when she was seven years old and the travel bug hasn't let up since. The threat of what lies beneath the surface and the dichotomy of how paradise can also be hell fascinates Ruth. Making a destination a character in its own right - both a friend and an enemy, not someone to be trusted - is a thread explored throughout her writing.
