When Kalin Thompson is promoted to Director of Security at Stone Mountain Resort, she soon becomes entangled in the high-profile murder investigation of an up-and-coming Olympic skier. There are more suspects with motives than there are gates on the super-G course, and danger mounts with every turn.
Kalin's boss orders her to investigate the murder. Her boyfriend wants her to stay safe and let the cops do their job. Torn between loyalty to friends and professional duty, Kalin must look within her isolated community to unearth the killer's identity.
Crime Writers of Canada shortlisted Descent for the Unhanged Arthur Award. The award is given for excellence in crime writing
