Cold-blooded
It’s been many years since I left the shore but, with the infinite patience of an immortal entity, the ocean has waited. Knowing I would return one day . . .
After witnessing a brutal murder out on the fast ice, reticent dock worker Tal Pierce realizes his life as a law-abiding citizen has come to an end. With a faulty judicial system and the purpetrator out to get him, he is left with no choice but to board a stolen icebreaker and brave the merciless sea.
Fleeing with him are expert hacker Gray and talented ship navigator Rez, but with Gray severely injured, Rez keeping dark secrets about her past, and the world staggering through the depths of an ice-age, their survival is anything but certain.
Trapped in a race against time, their search for sanctuary takes them from perilous scavenger territory to the unforgiving depths of uncharted wilderness, evoking memories from a past Tal will have to confront, as well as old ghosts that still linger below the waves.
