By Todd Borg

Texas nightclub owner Bill Esteban let his nephew March Carrera live at his house in the Tahoe Keys while March was figuring out what to do with his life. But when March went missing the same night a monster avalanche slid down to Emerald Bay, Bill had a sickening hunch that March was killed by the slide. When Detective Owen McKenna is approached by Esteban, he senses that the man's hunch is driven by something more than worry. McKenna brings in a professional avalanche rescue dog to search the slide area. As the dog alerts and starts digging, another avalanche comes down on the East Shore of Lake Tahoe, claiming another victim. McKenna realizes he won't figure out the murderer's identity until he knows the motive, but the people who can help him keep turning up dead, buried under the snow. When McKenna learns how the deaths are related, he realizes that the last person to die is up on Tahoe's highest mountain. McKenna tries to get there on skis before the killer strikes again, but a ferocious storm is approaching the Sierra. And there is one more avalanche coming to bury a secret forever...
