When U.S. Marshal Avery Stone is assigned to track down Mark Hensley, a fugitive pilot linked to a powerful drug cartel, she finds herself in Frosthaven, a desolate Alaskan town where the icy wilderness hides more than just secrets. Hensley’s plane crashes deep in the tundra, but the pilot vanishes without a trace. As Avery delves into the investigation, she uncovers a clandestine smuggling operation that uses the treacherous terrain to traffic drugs across the border.
With a brutal blizzard closing in and the locals unwilling to help, Avery must navigate a frozen labyrinth of danger, deception, and betrayal. Her search for Hensley draws the attention of cartel enforcers, who will stop at nothing to silence her. Along the way, Avery faces deadly obstacles, from sabotaged trails to traitors in her midst, forcing her to rely on her instincts and grit to survive.
As the storm intensifies, so does the threat, culminating in a high-stakes chase across the icy wilderness. Avery’s relentless pursuit of justice exposes a web of corruption that entangles even Frosthaven’s tight-lipped residents. But with the cartel’s influence stretching further than she imagined, Avery must decide how far she’s willing to go to bring a fugitive—and a criminal empire—to justice.
Black Ice is a gripping tale of survival and determination, where the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness is as much an enemy as the killers lurking within it. In a battle of willpower and wits, Avery must conquer the cold and uncover the truth before it’s buried forever beneath the snow.
