Een paar dagen voordat Corey terugkeert naar haar geboorteplaats Lost Creek in Alaska om haar beste vriendin Kyra te bezoeken, wordt Kyra dood aangetroffen, drijvend onder het ijs. Corey is er kapot van en kan niet geloven dat haar vriendin zelfmoord heeft gepleegd, zoals iedereen beweert. In Lost Creek lijkt niets meer op vroeger; de mensen behandelen haar als een vreemde en beweren dat Kyra's dood voorbestemd was. Corey voelt echter dat er iets niet klopt. Wat voor gruwelijke geheimen worden er voor haar verborgen gehouden? Terwijl de donkere, koude winter in Alaska vordert, gaat ze op zoek naar antwoorden, terwijl de sfeer in het dorp steeds grimmiger wordt. De roman is net zo spannend, ontroerend en prachtig geschreven als het eerdere werk van de auteur. Het boek bevat mooie, pakkende quotes en wordt geprezen om zijn griezelige en psychologische elementen, perfect voor de winterdagen. De sfeer en de originele schrijfstijl maken een blijvende indruk. De auteur weet met scherpe omschrijvingen en poëtische passages de personages en de verhaalwereld zo gedetailleerd neer te zetten dat de spanning en emotie des te intenser voelbaar zijn.
