Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Liz wakes up the next morning and hears a scream. Everyone rushes to Ani and Tiger’s room to find that Ani is dead. Erin examines the body and sees the telltale signs of suffocation. She guides everyone downstairs, where she pours whiskey and discusses how Ani died. Liz tells the group about their conversation the night before, and Tiger admits to taking sleeping pills given to her by Eva. It is in this moment that Danny realizes his staff key is missing, causing a slew of accusations from Rik and Topher. Amid the tension and arguing, Topher announces that Erin is Lady Dorothea de Plessis FitzClarence, the youngest daughter of the Marquess of Cardale. Danny exits the room, feeling betrayed; Erin chases him while Topher tells the others that this is the second avalanche Erin has been involved in. The last one killed her brother, Alex, and her lover, Will.
In the staff quarters, Danny accidentally slams Erin’s injured leg in the door trying to close it. This breaks his anger and the two talk. Erin reveals her backstory: that her family is not especially rich and that, at 19, she and her brother and her boyfriend went on a skiing trip that cost the men their lives.
