Snowfall’s Reckoning
Synopsis
​
A brutal winter storm, a missing man, and a lifetime of family secrets that are finally starting to thaw.
​
When Henry Fairbanks disappears into a savage blizzard days before Christmas, his daughter, Maggie, knows only one person can find him before it's too late: Ana Summer. Along with Kimo, a former Special Forces Marine, and their highly trained search-and-rescue dog, Koa, Ana heads straight into the freezing mountains to save a close family friend. But they are racing against much more than just the elements.
​
They find Henry clinging to life near the summit, but getting him down is only the start of the nightmare.
Back at the family lodge, tension hangs thicker than the storm outside. Henry's wife, Jill, is clearly hiding something.
Â
Their son, Paul, is drinking, desperate and drowning in debt. And a piece of hidden real estate connects them all to Jimmy Johnson-a newly released convict with a dangerous agenda of his own.
​
What first seems like a tragic accident quickly unravels into something far more sinister. As Ana and Kimo work to find Henry and keep his family safe, they find themselves pulling at threads that stretch back decades, all the way to the tragic fall that killed Maggie's mother.
​
When a hidden journal, a mysterious 911 call, and Henry's hazy memory of his abduction surface, pieces of the past begin to fit together. Someone has gone to great lengths to keep these secrets buried, and now he’s come to exact revenge.
​
Trapped by the storm, Ana, Kimo, and Maggie are forced into a deadly confrontation in a remote cabin. With decades of resentment boiling over, the Fairbanks family is about to reach a terrifying breaking point. The truth will finally come out in the winter storm-but will they all survive to see the spring?
​
Snowfall's Reckoning is a tense, atmospheric mystery-thriller with a heart. It's perfect for fans of deep-seated family secrets, trauma, and high-stakes survival.
Â
If you love twisty stories where the danger isn't just the freezing cold, but the people you trust the most, this page-turner will keep you reading late into the night.
