Thriller Crime
She thinks more highly of snow and ice than she does of
love. She lives in a world of numbers, science and
memories--a dark, exotic stranger in a strange land. And
now Smilla Jaspersen is convinced she has uncovered a
shattering crime... It happened in the Copenhagen snow. A six-year-old boy, a
Greenlander like Smilla, fell to his death from the top of
his apartment building. While the boy's body is still
warm, the police pronounce his death an accident. But
Smilla knows her young neighbor didn't fall from the roof
on his own. Soon she is following a path of clues as clear
to her as footsteps in the snow. For her dead neighbor,
and for herself, she must embark on a harrowing journey of
lies, revelation and violence that will take her back to
the world of ice and snow from which she comes, where an
explosive secret waits beneath the ice....
