The Silent Land by Graham Joyce

It's hard to describe this horror/fantasy novel, The Silent Land. Some words that come to mind - odd, creepy, and scary are just a few. A young couple is skiing in the Alps when they are hit by an avalache. Zoe is completely buried and is sure she is not going to make it, but then her husband Jake appears to dig her out. When they make their way down the mountain, they discover that no one is at the resort they are staying at. The lights are on, there is food being readied in the kitchen, there are plenty of cars around, but no people. Zoe and Jake assume that everyone has been evacuated, but they are wrong...
