A Killing Cold

Theo Scott was adopted at four, and her memory of the years before that is full of holes. Six months after she started seeing Connor Dalton, they are engaged. Now she is travelling to Idlewood, the Dalton family's huge, remote winter estate, to meet his relatives for the first time.

The trouble starts before she arrives. Anonymous texts claim the sender knows who Theo really is and what she did, and they order her to keep away from Connor. She goes anyway.

At Idlewood the Daltons keep her at a distance. Outsiders are rarely welcome there, and some of the family suspect she is chasing their money. Over family gatherings and a hunting trip, Theo searches the grounds for whoever is sending the messages.

The longer she stays, the more certain she becomes that she has stood in these rooms before. This is a standalone psychological thriller, set in the cold and isolation of the estate. Its tension rests on a link still unexplained between Theo's missing childhood and the Daltons.
