Some secrets are meant to stay buried… but in Stillwater, they’re about to be unearthed.
Madison thought the snowy trail through the forest was the safest way to disappear—Kaylee promised no one would follow them there. But in the blink of an eye, Madison lost sight of her friend… and when she found her again, Kaylee wasn’t alone.
Deep in the frozen woods of Stillwater, Minnesota, two teenage girls are found dead, their bodies hidden beneath a blanket of snow. Special Agent Nikki Hunt knows this killer is no outsider—it’s someone who knows the forest, the silence, and the dark corners of this remote town.
Returning to Stillwater for the first time in twenty years, Nikki faces a sheriff’s department convinced the murders are the work of a notorious serial killer from the past. But Nikki sees something they don’t: a chilling signature that links these murders to her own buried secrets—and to the very reason she left Stillwater behind.
When another girl is found, marked with a red silk ribbon, Nikki realizes the truth cuts closer to home than she ever imagined. As old wounds reopen and dangerous truths come to light, Nikki must confront her past before another child is lost forever.
The Girls in the Snow is a tense and chilling crime thriller packed with twists that will keep you hooked until the final shocking reveal. Perfect for fans of Karin Slaughter, Lisa Gardner, and Robert Dugoni.
