Review
"Henry follows up her award-winning debut novel, "Learning to Swim," with a strong second effort also featuring freelance reporter Troy Chance....Featuring a strong cast of female characters and a measured pace, this sophomore novel also perfectly conjures the lure of living in a small and beautiful mountain town during a bitterly cold winter. Featuring an independent and immensely likable lead, riffing on the complicated nature of friendship, and boasting a solidly plotted mystery, this may well appeal to fans of Gillian Flynn." - "Booklist"
"At the start of Henry's haunting follow-up to her Agatha-winning debut, "Learning to Swim," reporter Troy Chance stumbles onto what could be the story that changes her career - as well as several lives. . . Adding considerably to the compulsively readable mystery that unfolds...is Henry's bone-deep sense of this terribly beautiful place." - "Publishers Weekly
""I loved Sara J. Henry's first novel, LEARNING TO SWIM, and A COLD AND LONELY PLACE is even better. This is a character-driven thriller set in one of the coldest and loneliest places in the United States: the Adirondack Mountains in mid-winter. When the body of a hard-drinking young playboy is discovered frozen into the ice in Saranac Lake just before the annual winter carnival, Troy Chance, the tough-minded and good-hearted young journalist from LEARNING TO SWIM, has another horrific mystery to solve. Sara J. Henry brilliantly draws us into a terrifying but ultimately affirmative novel in which, once again, love, friendship, and the shining truth about who we really are redeems an otherwise hopeless universe." - Howard Frank Mosher, award-winning author of "The Great Northern Express" and "Walking to Gatlinburg
