The Weight of Cold Things

By: Towles

Wyoming Deputy Sheriff Gree Gooding has one mission: find her missing boss. The trail leads four thousand miles north-to Deadhorse, Alaska, an oil-drilling outpost clinging to the edge of the Arctic Circle. A place where daylight is rationed, where the cold can kill in minutes, and where her husband AJ, a petroleum geologist, vanished six months ago.The clues don't just point to her boss's disappearance. They reach back into Gree's own past- to the Wyoming ranch she left behind, to the family secrets buried in its soil, and to the grief frozen like permafrost inside her.When the investigation cinches around a decades-long cover-up - a black ops program called Arc Dominion - Gree realizes someone's been waiting for her. Someone knew she'd follow the thread. This was never about a missing sheriff. It's about the conspiracy AJ died trying to expose - and whether she can finish what he started.The cold doesn't forgive. It doesn't forget.And it's about to give up its dead.For fans of Yellowstone and The X-Files - where neo-Western grit meets a decades-long government conspiracy buried beneath the Arctic ice.
