Description
It's the dead of winter, and a killer like no other is turning a small Wisconsin town into a death trap in this #1 New York Times bestselling series.
Lucas Davenport has tracked killers in cities across America. But the woods of rural Wisconsin are as dark and primal as evil itself. The winters are harsher and colder. And in the heart of every mother and father, there is fear...
While spending the winter at his rural cabin, Davenport is enlisted to investigate a brutal crime in the small town. In his race to uncover the murderer, he learns that the killer's identity isn't the only secret in town.
Winter Prey weaves an intricate tale of suspense and terror, where danger lurks in every shadow and nothing is as it seems.
