About the Book:


Attorney Devyn Payne is left navigating thin ice as her small-town community fractures in the wake of a shocking crime in River Deep, the second in the Bitterfrost thriller series from Edgar nominee and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Bryan Gruley.

"Visceral, vivid, and suspenseful"--Meg Gardiner on Bitterfrost

Fighting for the cold, hard truth

Attorney Devyn Payne expects a quieter life when she returns to her hometown of Bitterfrost. Until the bodies of two eight-month-old boys are pulled from the icy depths of the local river. Was it a tragic accident or something more disturbing?

The twins' distraught parents survived the car crash, but their mother, Catriona Dulaney, was driving. Now she's charged with killing her babies, and her admission of guilt has leaked online. It should be the most straightforward case Devyn prosecutes all year. And yet, to her, it doesn't add up.

With time dwindling ahead of the trial, Detective Garth Klimmek questioning Cat's role in the tragedy, and a suspicious outsider loitering around town, this crime might just be the tip of an iceberg. Devyn's put two Dulaneys behind bars before. This time, whose side will she take--and what will it cost?

This suspense-drenched drama is perfect for fans of Dennis Lehane, the TV show Mayor of Kingstown, and small-town thrillers by Tim Johnston and John Sandford.
