Dead of Winter

Barb, the widowed owner of a small fishing tackle store, sets off on a pilgrimage to Lake Hilda, in remotest northern Minnesota, to scatter her late husband’s ashes.

Hit by a blizzard, she stops for help at a cabin in the woods and interrupts the kidnapping of a teenage girl. 

Spurred on by the memory of her husband, but hours from the nearest town and without any cell phone service, Barb realises she is the young woman’s only hope of survival. What follows is a merciless thriller that plays out in an epic wilderness, with a beautiful love story at its heart.
