Description
In the depths of the Republic's catastrophic winter, Major Karin Müller is called upon to stop a group of 'escapers' from crossing the frozen Ostee. Ahead, her partner, Hauptmann Werner Tilsner, has caught up with the group, but is he arresting them, or assisting them?
When a flash of red hair against the expanse of white stops Müller in her tracks, she's in shock. A familiar young girl is on the Ostee. Codename: Wildcat.
As tensions grow with her deputy, Tilsner, and a woman's murder to solve, Müller must work to uncover the secrets of the state under the difficulties of the worst winter in history.

His novels have been sold in eleven territories round the world. Before becoming a full-time author, David was a senior journalist with the BBC's international radio and TV newsrooms for more than 25 years.
