THEY DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY ACROSS THE POND...

When ex-FBI Agent Patrick Henderson calls in an 'X-Ray Sierra India' incident, the operator doesn't understand. He tells them to pass it up the chain till someone does.

That person is FBI Special Agent Kimberley Reynolds. Arriving snowbound Northern Wisconsin, she finds that a tornado has flattened half the town - and there's no sign of Henderson.

Things soon go from weird to worse, as neighbours report unsettling sightings, key evidence goes missing, and the snow keeps rising - cutting off the town, with no way in or out...

As the clues lead to the coldest of cold cases - a cursed expedition into the frozen wilderness - Reynolds follows a trail from the start of the American nightmare, to the horror that still lives on today...

Eine weitere Novella aus dem Rivers-of-London-Universum. Wir folgen diesmal Kimberly Reynolds in Amerika. Die Geschichte ist gut, auch stringent erzählt. Die Geschichte von komischen Wintertornados und Monstern hatte wirklich Akte-X-Vibes. Mich hat nur der ständige kirchliche Bezug (gut passt schon irgendwie zu Amerika) und die schnelle Entwicklung der Love Story gestört. Dafür gab es die 1,5 Sterne Abzug. Nichts desto trotz freue ich mich auf mehr Geschichten aus der Welt.

Delightful and short read with a gripping storyline. Perfect as a snack in-between longer books.
