Now, in cold, early-1980s Anchorage, inquisitive state trooper Jack Halcombe is burdened with piecing together a seemingly endless string of violent and meticulously premeditated murders, as he follows specks of circumstantial evidence. Unfortunately, the only survivor who miraculously escaped the nightmare--runaway teenage streetwalker Cindy Paulson--is reluctant to both ask for help and aid the investigation. Meanwhile, a soft-spoken member of the community and respectable family man finds himself entangled with the mysterious case. Will Halcombe ever unearth the secrets of the frozen ground?—Nick Riganas
