Floyd dropped the mitten at my feet, his tail wagging.

I picked it up and let out a horrified shriek.

Inside was a human hand.

The last thing ski patroller Greta Westerlind expects to find during routine avalanche training is the severed hand of her best friend. Evie Kearney is the latest woman to mysteriously disappear in the Aspen Mountains. Yet while an investigation is launched to find the rest of the body, Greta is relegated to the sidelines. The sheriff believes she’s too close to this one, but that’s exactly why she can’t possibly stop.

Soon Greta is embroiled in a gruesome game of cat and mouse, as twisty and dangerous as Aspen’s black diamond runs. Something sinister is happening on her mountain. Someone is trying to scare her away from learning what’s become of Evie. But Greta’s determined to find out . . . even if it means sharing the same fate.

This dark and twisty thriller is the second book in the Aspen mystery series, perfect for fans of Ruth Ware.
