USA TODAY BESTSELLER JULY 2023 LIBRARYREADS SELECTION 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.

"A solid, gory who done it. I sort of had it figured out, then bam. "
Rhon
"Really captivating and dark. The story itself was well written and the plot twists were consistently coming at you and keeping you guessing. I did figure it out right away due to the foreshadowing but overall it was a really good book! "
BluDragonfly
"So I called the big twist early on and guessed almost all of the plot points leading up to it. That rarely happens for me so I felt like things were pretty obvious. That being said, I thought the writing was great and even though I was convinced I knew the ending I still really enjoyed reading it. Great setting, fast paced. Liked it a lot. "

"Wow 100/5 might be my favorite book by Darcy. Incredible, it’s basically the among us game but in the woods. I really enjoyed this , more than i thought i would have. I did guess the killer towards the end but i was second guessing myself through the entire process. Very well written, highly recommend. "
Stev Cass
"This book kept me on the edge of my seat till the end. I was surprised who the murderer was also. The reason why he was the murderer was understandable though. I really liked this book! Can't wait to read another one!"
Darli Skaar
"I enjoyed reading this book. It was fast paced and kept me interested BUT I was disappointed by the fact that I figured things out extremely early on and then spent most of the book frustrated that the characters weren’t also figuring it out. The ending was also a let down.."
Nichol Jones
"I really, really enjoyed this book. Yes, even though I had guessed who had done it since the beginning, the way that other people had become violent themselves really had me convinced it wasn't who I thought it was. Towards the end, I was genuinely terrified. Really enjoyed this. It was awesome and an easy read for October spooks!"

"Best twist I’ve ever read! The writing and story plot was so deep and interesting that I just couldn’t put the book down! Creative,thrilling, entertaining, and best of all, had a satisfying ending that didn’t leave me questioning more. Definitely recommended!"

"Exhilarating. I love how it kept me guessing throughout the whole story. How every time I have the killer figured out, the rug is pulled out from under me. Make me want to check out Darcy's other books."
