A ski instructor's fatal fall. A staged accident. A detective who sees what others miss.
When Michael Fraser plunges to his death from a chairlift at Scotland's Nevis Range ski resort, everyone calls it a tragic accident. Everyone except DCI Sarah Lynch.
The scene is too perfect. The safety systems are too flawless. And Sarah has learned to recognise murder disguised as misfortune.
Her investigation uncovers a web of financial fraud hidden within the Highland resort—£250,000 stolen over three years, equipment orders that were never delivered, and a systematic theft operation that only one person had discovered: Michael Fraser.
As Sarah pieces together the evidence—sabotaged bindings, drugging, and meticulous planning—she realises Michael was killed for doing the right thing. He exposed corruption and paid with his life.
But Andrew Carmichael, the resort's operations manager, made one fatal mistake: he underestimated the detective who wouldn't accept convenient lies.
Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Scottish Highlands, The Frozen Descent is a gripping police procedural about integrity, the price of truth, and a detective fighting to deliver justice in a landscape where secrets run as deep as the glens.
Perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Val McDermid, and atmospheric Highland crime fiction.
Genre: Mystery
