"The detective here is as complex as the crime."--Booklist

"Madison is no-nonsense, as is Giambanco's lean yet expressive prose."--Shelf Awareness

"Superb . . . Giambanco seamlessly melds a solid look at police work with an intriguing glimpse at small-town life and the secrets that motivate people."
--Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)


"Valentina Giambanco has created a compelling and realistic character in detective Alice Madison . . . The setting of Ludlow in the cold desolation of winter and the isolation of the community mirrors the soul-deep loneliness of children caught in the isolation imposed by others."

"CRIME FICTION FOR CONNOISSEURS." --WILLIAM SHAW

In the dead of winter, homicide detective Alice Madison is sent to the remote town of Ludlow, Washington, to investigate an unspeakable crime.
Together with her partner, detective sergeant Kevin Brown, and crime scene investigator Amy Sorensen, Madison must first understand the killer's motives, but the dark mountains that surround Ludlow are the perfect refuge for anyone trying to keep their secrets.
When the killer strikes again, the three Seattle police officers find themselves under siege. And as they become targets, Madison and her team realize that in the freezing woods around the pretty town, a cunning evil hungers for their deaths.
