You thought you could leave the past behind. Think again. Donnie
Miller counts himself lucky. Living in a beautiful, spacious house
in the wild and remote landscape of central Canada, he spends his
days writing for the local newspaper, working on a film script, and
acting as house-husband. After a troubled and impoverished
upbringing in Scotland, he now has all he wants: a caring wife, a
bright and happy son, a generous father-in-law. As the brutal
northern winter begins to bite, he can sit back and enjoy life. But
his peace is soon broken. There are noises in the nearby woods,
signs of some mysterious watcher. When the family dog disappears,
Donnie makes a horrifying discovery. Is it wolves, as the police
suspect, or something far more dangerous, far darker? What secrets
has Donnie been keeping? And why does he have the terrible sense
that his dream was never going to last? A taut, shocking and
visceral novel that will leave you gasping for breath, Cold Hands
is the first thriller by the remarkable John Niven.
