The Quiet Shroud of Snow (A Gripping FBI Crime Thriller) - H.N. Wake

A body in the snow. A child’s footprints vanishing into the woods. A killer still out there. FBI Agent Dom Walker has seen her share of violent scenes, but this one’s different. A teenage girl lies half-buried in Central Park, snow thick as silence. Nearby, a second set of footprints, small, fast, and heading deeper into the storm. A child is missing. A predator is loose. The NYPD doesn’t want the Bureau involved, but Dom isn’t here to score points. She’s here to bring someone home. With sharp-tongued analyst Lea Peck, brilliant researcher Mila Pascale, and forensic accountant Owen Whyte at her side, Dom follows the trail from New York’s frozen skyline to the political shadows of Juneau, Alaska. What begins with a murdered girl, unravels into something far stranger: an abduction, a cover-up, and a powerful financial machine built to erase problems before they make noise. But Dom doesn’t answer to power. She serves the voiceless and the missing. And this time, her grit may be the only thing that brings a child home. When the storm clears, only one truth will remain. A chilling, propulsive FBI thriller for fans of Karin Slaughter, Sharon Bolton, and readers who know some wrongs don’t go quietly.
