Mechanic and part-time thief Doug Manning's life has been forever scarred by the mysterious death of his wife, Cherie, and now he's starting over with another woman and more ambitious crimes. Police detective Joe Keenan has never been the same since that night, when he failed to save the life of a young boy . . . and the boy's father vanished in the storm only feet away. And all the way on the other side of the country, Miri Ristani receives a phone call . . . from a man who died twelve years ago. As old ghosts trickle back, this new storm will prove to be even more terrifying than the last.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Snow Blind is a viciously funny novel with a moral. It lifts the lid on male relationships and asks whether men ever truly grow up. More importantly, what impact is this having on the legacy we leave our kids? Dan Greenhenge is sliding uncontrollably towards the dual dangers of a gaping ice-blue crevasse and a marriage of convenience. This 40-year old music obsessed copywriter is a lovely, but hapless man, his survival will be determined by whether he can finally take responsibility for himself. Richard Blanchard’s début novel takes place over an extended stag ski weekend in Chamonix, France, below the peaks of Mont Blanc. Dan is under pressure from every angle. First his son Bepe is in a life threatening accident at Manchester Airport, and then there is Robert, an estranged college friend who disrespects everything Dan is, who leads the stag party astray. Dan’s boss has heaped work on him, to try to save their advertising agency. But his biggest worry is the presence of Juliet, the ‘love of his lifetime’ ex-girlfriend who has wrangled her way into the weekend, an honorary stag-ette on a mission. As the stags push Dan into increasingly embarrassing situations, he can’t refuse. But when they take this novice skier to the Vallee Blanche, some of the most challenging terrain in Europe, have they pushed him too far?

Spurred by obligation, Robin Spencer drives through blizzard conditions to find the one person she never wanted to see again: Shale Anderson. When her trip turns deadly, Robin's only hope is to trust this man who broke her heart. But can she, when he's more like the dark, reclusive hero in the graphic novels he creates than the caring Shale she once knew? A man in need of forgiveness... Shale Andersen is poison. When the only woman he's ever loved shows upon his doorstep, he'll do anything to send her away. If he doesn't, he will end up ruining her life, or worse, killing her&â&€”just like every other woman who's ever gotten close to him. A danger so complete, it threatens to consume them both... Robin's only chance at happiness lies in acceptance. Shale's only chance at freedom lies in forgiveness. Can they weather the storm and begin their lives anew, or will someone with a thirst for revenge destroy their future? Snow Blind was inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale The Snow Queen.

Download or read book Left for Dead written by Beck Weathers and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2000-09-21 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a new preface by the author • As featured in the upcoming motion picture Everest, starring Jason Clarke, Josh Brolin, John Hawkes, Robin Wright, Emily Watson, Keira Knightley, Sam Worthington, and Jake Gyllenhaal “I can tell you that some force within me rejected death at the last moment and then guided me, blind and stumbling—quite literally a dead man walking—into camp and the shaky start of my return to life.” In 1996 Beck Weathers and a climbing team pushed toward the summit of Mount Everest. Then a storm exploded on the mountain, ripping the team to shreds, forcing brave men to scratch and crawl for their lives. Rescuers who reached Weathers saw that he was dying, and left him. Twelve hours later, the inexplicable occurred. Weathers appeared, blinded, gloveless, and caked with ice—walking down the mountain. In this powerful memoir, now featuring a new Preface, Weathers describes not only his escape from hypothermia and the murderous storm that killed eight climbers, but the journey of his life. This is the story of a man’s route to a dangerous sport and a fateful expedition, as well as the road of recovery he has traveled since; of survival in the face of certain death, the reclaiming of a family and a life; and of the most extraordinary adventure of all: finding the courage to say yes when life offers us a second chance. Praise for Left for Dead “Riveting . . . [a] remarkable survival story . . . Left for Dead takes a long, critical look at climbing: Weathers is particularly candid about how the demanding sport altered and strained his relationships.”—USA Today “Ultimately, this engrossing tale depicts the difficulty of a man’s struggle to reform his life.”—Publishers Weekly
