Thriller Crime
In the small town of Wyalusing in eastern Pennsylvania, a
woman is found brutally murdered one winter night. Next to
the body is Danny Bedford, a misunderstood man who suffered
a tragic brain injury that left him with limited mental
capabilities. Despite his simple life, his intimidating size
has caused his neighbors to ostracize him out of fear of
what he may do. So when the local bully-turned-deputy
discovers Danny with the body, it’s obvious that Danny’s
physical strength has finally become deadly. But in the
long, freezing night that follows, the murder is only the
first in a series of crimes that viciously upset the town
order—an unstoppable chain of violence that appears to make
Danny’s guilt undeniable. With the threat of an approaching blizzard, the local
sheriff and a state trooper work through the predawn hours
to restore some semblance of order to Wyalusing. As they
investigate one unspeakable incident after another, they
discover an intricate web of lies revealing that not
everything is quite what it seems. With echoes of Scott Smith’s A Simple Plan and Tana French’s
In the Woods, Samuel W. Gailey’s Deep Winter is a richly
atmospheric and ingeniously plotted debut, surprising to the
final page. It’s impossible to escape this bone-chilling
story of deception, where the truth is uncertain and
something sinister lurks just below the surface. . . .
