A tragic plane crash that leaves two women stranded and fighting for their lives kicks off this sweeping and hilarious novel from award-winning writer Drew Hayden Taylor that blends thriller, murder mystery, and horror with humour and spectacle.


Elmore Trent is a professor of Indigenous studies who finds himself entangled in an affair that's ruining his marriage; Paul North plays in the IHL (Indigenous Hockey League), struggling to keep up with the game that's passing him by; Detective Ruby Birch is chasing a string of gruesome murders, with clues that conspicuously lead her to both Elmore and Paul. And then there's Fabiola Halan, former journalist-turned-author and famed survivor of a plane crash that sparked a nationwide tour promoting her book.

What starts off as a series of subtle connections between isolated characters quickly takes a menacing turn, as it becomes increasingly clear that someone—or something—is hunting them all.

Taking tropes from the murder mystery, police procedural, thriller, and horror genres, Drew Hayden Taylor weaves a pulse-pounding and propulsive narrative with an intricate cast of characters, while never losing the ability to make you laugh.

"Cold is an absolutely enthralling novel from a legendary writer and storyteller. Drew Hayden Taylor is a master of genuinely capturing contemporary Indigenous realities in fiction, making the vibrant characters in this exceptional story relatable and real. Cold is creepy and funny, smart and lively, and overall a strikingly dynamic book that will keep readers on edge from start to finish." —Waubgeshig Rice, author of Moon of the Crusted Snow and Moon of the Turning Leaves

"The myth of the Wendigo has shaped narratives from Pet Semetary to Shadow Country to The Hunger—but never in my reading has it been so cleverly and relevantly employed as it is in Drew Hayden Taylor's serpentine and haunting new novel, Cold." —Nick Cutter, author of The Troop and Little Heaven

I met Drew Hayden Taylor at the Lakefield Literary Festival this past July, chatted with him briefly and he signed my paper copy of “Cold”. But because I listen to ALL my books now, I just finished the audio version and it is BRILLIANT! So many of the Indigenous stories are there but it’s Taylor’s humour that had me chortling through a book that can be quite gruesome. So, let your imagination soar a bit and allow yourself to believe in an ancient Indigenous spirit who comes to Toronto.😉 Oh…and did I mention hockey? Well, there’s lots of hockey. Well done, Drew!!!

A Very Enjoyable Read/Listen!

The twists and turns of this story had me feeling like I was on a rollercoaster ride. I know it’s cheesy to say, but I wasn’t expected half of the twists in this story! It was the perfect amount of horror mixed with rezzy comedic relief. If you want to read a Wendigo story by an actual Native author, please read this!

Thrilling, scary and rezzy!
