About the Book

In the frozen reaches of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, fierce winter storms can hit without notice. In the white opacity of one such blizzard, Norman Haas simply walks away from his prison work detail without detection. After agonizing days of blistering cold, Norman finds himself at the farmhouse of a lonely middle-aged woman who gives him temporary shelter while keeping him at a comfortable distance with her late husband's shotgun. When she tries to turn him in, he escapes again. Thus begins a riveting story of Norman’s journey back to his past, back to the woman he loved who betrayed him, back to the brother who helped put him away, and back to a dangerous web of family allegiances, deceptions, and intrigue. On Norman's trail is Del Maki, the hard-working sheriff of Yellow Dog Township, a fork in the road on the way to Canada. Cold takes us deep into an intricate, fascinating tale, where love, greed, and the promise of a last chance compel six people toward a chilling and inevitable reckoning. "From the Trade Paperback edition."

Review :
"John Smolens is that rare and gifted writer who can capture both our exterior and interior worlds with equal dexterity, grace, and power. Cold is a novel so riveting you will absolutely not be able to put it down, and these characters will stay with you long after turning the last page." --Andre Dubus III, author of House of Sand and Fog "Cold is a finely crafted, wild yarn set in the great north. John Smolens gives us a suspenseful tale in a style somewhere between Jack London and Raymond Chandler. A fine read." --Jim Harrison, author of Legends of the Fall "Cold grabs you on the first page and, like the snow swirling around John Smolens's fascinating characters, the ice-hard prose pushes under your collar and travels quickly down your spine. Soon you'll be chilled to the bone, but you may not even notice because you'll be too busy turning the pages. You must read Cold-- preferably beside a fire, under a blanket." --William Martin, author of Back Bay, Cape Cod, and Citizen Washington "From the Hardcover edition."
