  'A brutal, wild, and wonderful thriller. Atmospheric, clever and full of heart, Wolf Point is a truly stunning debut novel'Chris Whitaker, New York Times No.1 bestselling author of All The Colours Of The Dark and We Begin At The End'A gripping, atmospheric thriller with a brilliantly compelling premise, Wolf Point had me intrigued from the very first page'Gillian McAllister, New York Times bestselling author of Caller UnknownOne missing girl. Three possibilities. No turning back. Wolf Point, Alaska. When police officer Terril Black is thrust into the role of sergeant under brutal circumstances, she expects a quiet first night in charge. Instead, a teenage girl vanishes from a remote motel - and for Terril, walking away is never an option. With a department that doesn't want a woman in charge, a hostile officer undermining her at every turn, and a rookie fresh from Miami as her only back-up, she is plunged into a desperate missing persons investigation, racing against time and the elements. Here, it isn't the first 48 hours that count - it's the first four to eight. After that, even something innocent can end badly. But as she digs deeper, unsettling clues point towards something dark festering beneath the surface of this isolated small town. And when a violent snowstorm cuts them off from the outside world, Terril isn't just fighting to save the girl - she's fighting to get out alive. A gripping debut crime novel for readers of Gillian Flynn, Chris Whitaker, Jane Harper and Tana French. *'With its brilliantly stormy setting and slippery cast of suspects, this dark, evocative crime debut will give you the chills - in every sense of the word'Louise Candlish, Sunday Times bestselling author of Our House, The Heights and The Only Suspect'A stunning debut, Wolf Point blends thriller, small-town mystery and a plaintive cry on behalf of forgotten victims with consummate skill...Tense, poignant and page-turning, this is a book to read into the dark hours' Vaseem Khan, internationally bestselling author of Midnight at Malabar House'This triumphant debut leads readers into the mystery-fiction wilderness-clues dangling like leaves overhead, one-way roads that double back on themselves, dead ends and sudden drops and currents that sweep you away...

Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window'Lisa Howells pulls off the near-impossible in this stunning debut.
