Description
Winnipeg, 1940. The river is frozen solid. The truth is buried deeper.In the tradition of James Patterson, Robert Ludlum, and Greg Iles, Young delivers a relentless thriller where the only thing more lethal than the prairie winter is a secret hiding in plain sight.New Year's Eve, 1939. As a wind shrieks down Portage Avenue, the city's elite celebrate the end of a decade inside the warm, gilded mansions of Armstrong Point. But outside, on the frozen ice of the Assiniboine River, the party is over.A high-profile corporate lawyer is found dead beneath the Maryland Bridge. It looks like a robbery gone wrong, until Detective Constable Gabriel O'Malley finds the killer's calling card tucked into the victim's pocket: The Fool, a card from an antique Tarot deck.The cards are being dealt. The game is rigged.O'Malley is an outcast in his own department-labeled a "War Baby" for not enlisting, he fights a lonely battle on the home front. When a second body appears in a railyard boxcar, pinned with another card-The Tower-O'Malley realizes he is hunting a killer who sees murder as a ritual.To break the code, he must turn to the one person the law ignores: Olena Petrenko, a North End "witch" who claims the cards aren't just paper, but a map of a coming catastrophe.The Magician holds the key.The trail leads O'Malley to the doorstep of Elias Vance, a wealthy American industrialist who has arrived in Winnipeg with unlimited cash and a mysterious construction project deep beneath his fortress-like home. Vance claims he is building a bomb shelter for the coming war, but O'Malley suspects the tunnel is meant for something-or someone-far more dangerous.As the temperature drops to thirty below, O'Malley and Petrenko must race to stop a grand design that threatens to turn the city into a sanctuary for a darkness no one sees coming.In a city of ice, silence is the only witness.
