Brynn Nealey participates as a forensic specialist in a search and rescue operation. Battling through a treacherous snowstorm in the Cascades, she makes her way to the survivors of a plane crash. Alex Kinton, a former U.S. Marshal with a penchant for self-destruction, manages to deceive the rescue team into taking him into the mountains. He is on the hunt for his brother's murderer and seeks vengeance. Upon reaching the crash site, the team discovers that no one survived the crash—except for the man Alex is after. Alex is determined to follow the murderer through the snowy wilderness. However, as the temperatures drop, so does the wall he has built around himself. The feelings he develops for the clever, warm-hearted Brynn, who risks her life for others, are difficult to reconcile with his thirst for revenge. What will happen when Alex finally confronts his brother's killer? In "Frozen," the second thrilling episode of the Bone-Secrets saga, Golden Heart finalist Kendra Elliot weaves a chilling tale of cold nights, cold hearts, and cold-blooded killers.
