ONE SMALL, NEW ENGLAND TOWN IS TAKEN BY STORM--AND NOTHING WILL EVER BE THE SAME.

Once upon a time, Coventry weathered a horrific blizzard, one that left many people dead--and others mysteriously lost. Twelve years later, the town is still haunted by the snow that fell that one fateful night...and now a new storm is on the way.

"A fun, bone chilling thriller."--Boston Globe on Snowblind

Photographer Jake Schapiro mourns the little brother he lost in the storm and, this time, he will see another boy go missing. Mechanic and part-time thief Doug Manning, whose wife was never found after she wandered into the whiteout, is starting over with another woman--and more ambitious crimes. Police detective Joe Keenan has never been the same since that night, when he failed to save the life of a young boy...and the boy's father vanished in the storm only feet away. And all the way on the other side of the country, Miri Ristani receives a phone call--from a man who died twelve years ago. Old ghosts are trickling back to life as a new threat rolls in. Could it be that this storm will be even more terrifying than the last?

"Horror fiction is starting to make a comeback...writers like Christopher Golden are a big part of the reason."--George R. R. Martin, New York Times bestselling author of Game of Thrones
"A ghost-house thrill-ride...A great read for a winter night, or any night."--John Ajvide Lindqvist, author of Let the Right One In
