"Cameron's books are riveting page-turners."
--Mark Greaney, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Readers looking for pulse-pounding action and a nail-biting adventure
need not look any further than this new thriller from the author of Tom
Clancy's Jack Ryan series...
In a remote Alaskan village, Deputy US Marshal Arliss Cutter searches
for a stone-cold killer amid a hotbed of corruption, lies, and
long-buried secrets . . .
Winter comes early to the rural native community of Stone Cross,
Alaska--and so does hunting season. Caribou and moose are a major source
of food through the long, dark months ahead. But Arliss Cutter has come
here for a very different game. A federal judge is receiving death
threats and refuses protection. Cutter and his deputy Lola Teariki have
been assigned to shadow him on his trip to this icy outland to make sure
that he's safe. But they quickly discover that no one is ever really
safe in a place like this. And no one is above suspicion . . .
When Cutter and Lola arrive, the village is already gripped with fear. A
young couple has disappeared from their fishing lodge, just eight miles
upriver. Their handyman has been found dead, next to a crude drawing of
a mysterious symbol. To make matters worse, a dense fog has descended on
the region, isolating the town from civilization. With the judge's life
still at risk, and two people still missing, Cutter and Lola have their
work cut out for them. But navigating the small-town customs and
blood-bound traditions of this close-knit community won't be easy. When
the secrets come out, the deadly hunt is on . . .
Because in Alaska, nothing runs colder than blood.
