‘Unrelenting tension … sharp writing … an atmospheric take on the cat-and-mouse plot’ Books+Publishing

An isolated, empty ski resort in the off-season. A woman who doesn’t want to be found. A man who may not be who he appears to be. A game of cat and mouse—with deadly consequences.

On the run from a controlling husband and his underworld associates in Melbourne, Charlotte has adopted a new identity and found a job as an off-season caretaker in a tiny, deserted alpine resort. Some dangerous people are looking for Charlotte and so she’s lying low, tending to the lodges, happy to be alone, but jumping every time a floor creaks or the wind whistles through the empty buildings. She’s trying to convince herself she’s okay, that she got away. But then strange things start happening around the resort. And Charlotte starts to realise that every escape route is being sealed off, one by one.

From Gabriel Bergmoser, the master of propulsive, page-turning storytelling, The Caretaker will have readers second-guessing themselves at every turn. What’s real and what isn’t? Who’s dangerous and who isn’t? And who will survive? A menacing, nail-biting, nerve-racking psychological thriller.

Finalist, Best Novel, 2024 Ngaio Marsh Awards

‘Strap yourself in for a fast high-octane ride. With excruciating tension on every single page, mind-bending twists, and a deliciously clever plot, The Caretaker is everything we’ve come to expect from Gabriel Bergmoser’s novels: unpredictable, wild, and impossible to put down’ – Lyn Yeowart, author of The Silent Listener

‘Warning: do not start this book if you have other things to do because I can tell you now they will not get done. The Caretaker is completely absorbing, highly addictive and supremely unsettling; also whip-smart and darkly funny. This is Bergmoser at his unputdownable best’ – Anna Downes, author of The Shadow House

‘Bergmoser does it again. A cracking read. A fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat thriller. I’ll never look at a ski lodge in the same way again’ – Margaret Hickey, author of Broken Bay©2023 Gabriel Bergmoser (P)2023 HarperCollins Publisher
