From bestselling author Darcy Coates comes Dead of Winter, a remote cabin in the snowy wilderness thriller that will teach you to trust no one. There are eight strangers. One killer. Nowhere left to run.
When Christa joins a tour group heading deep into the snowy expanse of the Rocky Mountains, she's hopeful this will be her chance to put the ghosts of her past to rest. But when a bitterly cold snowstorm sweeps the region, the small group is forced to take shelter in an abandoned hunting cabin. Despite the uncomfortably claustrophobic quarters and rapidly dropping temperature, Christa believes they'll be safe as they wait out the storm.
She couldn't be more wrong.
Deep in the night, their tour guide goes missing...only to be discovered the following morning, his severed head impaled on a tree outside the cabin. Terrified, and completely isolated by the storm, Christa finds herself trapped with eight total strangers. One of them kills for sport...and they're far from finished. As the storm grows more dangerous and the number of survivors dwindles one by one, Christa must decide who she can trust before this frozen mountain becomes her tomb.

It's not the snow you should fear-it's the person next to you.
Christa hoped a retreat to the Rocky Mountains would help her escape her haunted past, but a brutal snowstorm strands her in an abandoned cabin with eight strangers-and a killer who won't stop until no one is left.
From the very first page, Dead of Winter by Darcy Coates plunges you into bone-chilling isolation and a relentless fight for survival. This visceral locked-room horror blends graphic, inventive suspense with an atmosphere so intense you'll feel the icy air and hear every creak in the darkness. The claustrophobic cabin becomes a trap, where trust is a luxury no one can afford, and betrayal lurks behind every fearful glance.
If you crave snowstorm survival and unrelenting dread, this is your next obsession.
