On Thin Ice
(2027)(The first book in the Montana Rescue: New Watch series)
A novel by Tari Faris and Susan May Warren
When a photographer captures what she thinks is a mountain rescue—and a former SAR climber sees it’s a murder—they’re pulled into a conspiracy where the only thing more dangerous than Glacier’s backcountry is believing that silence will keep them safe.
Photojournalist Brynn Walker has spent her career chasing hard-news bylines that will prove she’s more than feel-good feature stories. Deep in Glacier National Park’s backcountry, her camera captures what looks like a dramatic mountain rescue on a distant slope—exactly the shot she’s been waiting for. But when she brings the footage to Mercy Falls’s PEAK Rescue team for verification, the truth is worse than she imagined: the movement is wrong, the equipment is wrong, and no one on that slope is trying to save anyone. And worse yet, if she saw them, there was a good chance they saw her.
Former backcountry ranger Xander Sullivan came to Montana still running from Zion —the flash flood that cost his best friend's life and made him walk away from ever leading a SAR rescue again. He keeps his world small and his emotions locked down—until a determined photographer hands him footage that changes everything. He sees in an instant what Brynn missed: a staged murder made to look like a wilderness accident. And the professionals who pulled it off aren’t finished.
As Brynn and Xander follow the trail through a beloved priest’s cryptic journal, they uncover a money-laundering conspiracy running through the powerful Sinclair family—and a decades-old secret that empire will kill to protect. With hired killers closing in across spring ice and fracturing glaciers, Xander must face the fear that drove him off the mountain while Brynn must choose between the story of a lifetime and staying alive. Because in Glacier’s backcountry, not everyone who falls was climbing.
Perfect for fans of Lynn H. Blackburn and Dani Pettrey, ON THIN ICE launches the Montana Rescue: The Rookies series with pulse-pounding suspense, breathtaking wilderness, and a romance forged under the most dangerous of circumstances.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
