Dead of Winter

by Anders de la Motte, Julie Maisey (Narrator)

It was always going to be a night to remember.

Winter 1987

Laura is excited to spend Christmas as usual with her beloved aunt Hedda and her friends. But her festive mood soon turns sour as she finds both old faces and new are keeping secrets from her. When a fire claims the life of her best friend, the beautiful and talented Iben Jensen, the scars of that night will remain with Laura for the rest of her life.

Today

With her aunt's death, Laura inherits the cabin village Hedda used to manage and is forced to return to the town she hasn't set foot in since the tragedy. Laura's presence stirs up repressed emotions in the small community, and it isn't long before a series of arson attacks casts suspicion on her. Though Laura is desperate to leave, she learns her aunt discovered something about that fateful night not long before she died.

But someone wants the past to stay buried....
