Book Review: Chill Factor by Sandra Brown

In Sandra Brown's book Chill Factor (affiliate link), a serial killer is rampaging in a small town. Suspicion falls on Ben Tierney, a writer of articles about outdoors life. Tierney and Lilly, who has just divorced the town's police chief, end up trapped in a mountain cabin in the middle of a blizzard. A struggle for life and death begins.

Numerous parties try to get to the cabin. Some to save Lilly, some to lynch Tierney. But is he guilty of the murders?

And what other immoral things are going on in the small town?

My biggest problem with this book was the cold. Just when the weather was getting colder, I didn't feel inspired to read about the blizzard and its effects. I guess it would have been better to read this book in the summer heat.

 

 

 

PLOT SPOILERS BELOW, BEWARE!

It was clear from the beginning that Tierney couldn't be guilty because he was the romantic hero of the story. I wanted to get to the end of the book to see how all the evidence against him was explained. And it was explained well.

The culprit is of course an incel. An ugly man who can't stand not being good enough for good-looking women. An ugly man who can't stand it when an ugly woman tries to hit him. Surely an ugly woman should be killed if she dares to try to hit a man?
