About this ebook

'Gives the Scandi authors a run for their money.' Yrsa Sigurðardóttir
Every secret has consequences.
Autumn 2004
In Bampton, Derbyshire, Lena Fisher is arrested for suffocating her husband, Andrew.
Spring 2016
A year after Lena's release from prison, Andrew is found dead in a disused mortuary.
Who was the man Lena killed twelve years ago, and who committed the second murder? When Lena disappears, her sister, Kat, sets out to follow a trail of clues delivered by a mysterious teenage boy. Kat must uncover the truth - before there's another death . . .
A Deadly Thaw confirms Sarah Ward's place as one of the most exciting new crime writers.

The beginning of the book grips you but that doesn't last, the plot is way too complex and in the end I thought it ridiculous that Andrew was not killed in 2004 but let go to re-offend.
