For fans of Tana French and Mare of Easttown, a wonderfully atmospheric debut in which a newly promoted police officer is thrust into an investigation to find a teenage girl who disappears as a crushing storm descends, in a race against time and the harsh Alaskan elements.

In the remote Alaskan town of Wolf Point—a melting-pot community built on the bones of a once-thriving whaling industry—police officer Terril Black is unexpectedly thrust into the position of sergeant under brutal circumstances. On her first night in charge, a teenage girl disappears from a desolate motel, plunging Terril into a desperate race against time and the onset of Endless night, 100 days without sunlight.
  
With only a rookie officer flown in from Miami and a hostile fellow officer that’s she’s now in charge of by her side, Terril faces a town on the edge: wary locals, distrust within her own department, and a vicious winter storm that cuts Wolf Point off from the outside world. 
  
A local strike fuels hostility as unsettling clues point Terril towards something sinister lurking within the town. Old secrets begin to claw their way to the surface as she tries to bring the missing girl home before Wolf Point’s dark history shatters the community forever. With shades of Mare of Easttown and Ruth Ware’s One by One, this is a gripping, complicated story that is based on true events.
