What if you were held captive by your own family? Emma Rawlins has spent the last year a prisoner. The months following her mother's death dragged her father into a paranoid spiral of conspiracy theories and doomsday premonitions. Obsessing him, controlling him, they now whisper the end days are finally at hand. And he doesn't intend to face them alone. Emma finds herself drugged and dragged to a secluded cabin, the last refuge from a society supposedly due to collapse. Their cabin a snowbound fortress, her every move controlled, but even that isn't enough to weather the end of the world. Everything she knows is out of reach, lost beyond a haze of white. There is no choice but to play her father's game while she plans her escape. But there is a force far colder than the freezing drifts. Ancient, ravenous, it knows no mercy. And it's already had a taste... Wind Chill also contains eight original bonus stories: -The Fear Merchant: The local king of Halloween finds himself outdone by a new neighbor and becomes compelled to discover what secrets lie in the haunted house across the street. -Bang!: A rivalry between two creatures of the night takes a black-humored twist. -Little Red Vest: A break down leaves a woman stranded on the wrong side of town-and witness to a bizarre performance that can warp time as easily as it does flesh. -Shadowplay: Still mourning his little brother's death, an aging wave slave finds comfort in the local playground. But he can't help but wonder about the strange child who lingers there after dark. -Jump Cuts: Bitter and dejected, a spinster discovers a way to reconnect with the warmer shades of the human experience. And her own regrets. -The Skin Trade: A one-night stand leaves a businessman with an unthinkable cargo.
