Luckily there are plenty of riveting titles out there to choose from — including one recommendation from Reese Witherspoon that was ranked a "must-read thriller with a shocking twist" by Penguin Random House editors: The Sanatorium by Sarah Pearse.
"An imposing, isolated getaway spot high up in the Swiss Alps is the last place Elin Warner wants to be. But Elin’s taken time off from her job as a detective, so when her estranged brother, Isaac, and his fiancée, Laure, invite her to celebrate their engagement at the hotel, Elin really has no reason not to accept. When they wake one morning to discover Laure is missing, Elin must trust her instincts if they hope to find her."

Sarah Pearse was inspired to write 'The Sanatorium' while living in Switzerland
In an interview with The Novelry, Pearse opened up about how living abroad as a young adult inspired her to write her debut novel, The Sanatorium.
View this post on Instagram"When I lived in Switzerland, I spent a lot of time in the mountains, and after experiencing its extremes in both landscape and weather, I knew I wanted to set a story in the Alps at some point in the future," Pearse continued. "When a storm rolls in or you witness the aftereffects of an avalanche, the mountains can move very quickly from a place of fun to somewhere extremely sinister."
"Looking at the photographs of these buildings, from the huge windows to the sterile interiors, got me thinking about how it would feel to stay as a guest in a building with such a clinical past. I really played with this in the design of Le Sommet, the minimalist hotel set in the old sanatorium. There are lots of macabre reminders of the building’s dark past," the author added.
