Description: Former poetry professor Jodi Luna hasn't quite adjusted to life as a game warden. Her boss thinks she's better with animals than humans, and the man she's seeing wants a real relationship. Still reeling from her husband's death, Jodi has to admit that she keeps people at a distance. After her new friend, wealthy actress Claudia Evans, gathers with family members in the New Mexico wilderness, Jodi gets some unsettling news-that Claudia's brother-in-law is missing. Eager to help, Jodi ventures into the wild to investigate, only to be thwarted by a blizzard that leaves the entire group stranded at a fishing lodge. Jodi is no stranger to extreme weather, but when these reluctant adventurers start turning up mauled around the snowed-in lodge, Jodi suspects the worst: this was no bear. This was murder. And inside the snowy confines of this rustic hideaway, everyone is fair game for a killer.
