"A scary read that will chill you to the bone," --Library Journal.
After the battlefront death of her husband, a soldier, in the sands of the Middle East, a distraught Cass decides to move to the bucolic village of Darnshaw--a place she once knew and loved--with her teenage son, with the hope that a change in scenery will be just the thing to help her family heal.
But the locals aren't as friendly as she had hoped and the iInternet connection isn't as reliable as her work requires. Ben begins to display an uncharacteristic hostility.
A blizzard strikes Darnshaw, marooning it in a sea of snow, and Cass begins to despair. She finds a sympathetic ear in the person of her son's substitute teacher. But his attentions can't put to rest her growing anxiety about her son and her business. And soon, she finds herself pitted against dark forces she can barely comprehend.
The cold season has begun...
