Description
** NATIONAL BESTSELLER **
“From its startling opening line right through to its stunning conclusion, Girl in Snow is a perfectly paced and tautly plotted thriller. Danya Kukafka’s misfit characters are richly drawn, her prose is both elegant and eerie—this is an incredibly accomplished debut.” —Paula Hawkins, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Girl on the Train and Into the Water
WHO ARE YOU WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING?
When a beloved high schooler named Lucinda Hayes is found murdered, no one in her sleepy Colorado suburb is untouched—not the boy who loved her too much; not the girl who wanted her perfect life; not the officer assigned to investigate her murder. In the aftermath of the tragedy, these three indelible characters—Cameron, Jade, and Russ—must each confront their darkest secrets in an effort to find solace, the truth, or both. In crystalline prose, Danya Kukafka offers a brilliant exploration of identity and of the razor-sharp line between love and obsession, between watching and seeing, between truth and memory.
Compulsively readable and powerfully moving, Girl in Snow offers an unforgettable reading experience and introduces a singular new talent in Danya Kukafka.

A suspense mystery that will set you teeth on edge.
I loved the story line but it was a really slow moving book. Maybe it was to bring the drama of suspense or something I just wish the plot developed a lot faster that it did.
Lacey R, Reviewer
A local high school girl is found murdered and three people – the girl who hated her, the boy who loved her and the officer investigating her murder – have to not only try to figure out who did it (or be blamed themselves) but also figure out some of their own problems as well. This started out promising but I found myself skimming past certain character’s chapters and only gave this a three rating due to the twist at the end.
