Snow Falls, Alaska is small, quiet, and easy to forget-until the governor decides no one gets in or out.
When acting chief Sarah Spencer learns a notorious killer's heir has set his sights on her, the town is abruptly sealed: state police roadblocks, disabled cell service, and a storm moving in like a lid slammed on a coffin. Sarah's officers are sick. Backup is a fantasy. And the killer knows exactly how to use isolation as a weapon.
Bethany Lights should stay locked in her cabin. Instead, she arms up and drives straight into town, because she knows what Sarah won't say out loud: this is the final stage of a long hunt, and the hunter has been planning it for years.
From the station to the coffee shop, from whispered strategy to sudden hostage threats, every hour becomes a contest of nerves. The enemy doesn't need an army-he has weather, politics, and fear on his side. And as the snow deepens, Bethany and Sarah realize the next move could decide who sees morning.
