When five strangers are abandoned on an island without any idea where they are or whom to trust, their nightmarish new reality begins to unfold. Someone is lying. Someone is hiding a terrible secret. They'd all do anything to get home.... Wouldn't they? As the group struggles to uncover the truth about their mysterious whereabouts, only one thing is certain: Every choice they make on the island will affect the others.

Publisher's Summary
In an intense, emotional mystery that spans a decade in the life of a small town, best-selling author Brian Freeman brings us an unforgettable heroine who discovers that the dead may sometimes be easier to rescue than the living.
Deputy Shelby Lake was abandoned as a baby, saved by a stranger who found her in the freezing cold. Now, years later, a young boy is missing - and Shelby is the one who must rescue a child.
The only evidence of what happened to 10-year-old Jeremiah Sloan is a bicycle left behind on a lonely road. After a desperate search fails to locate him, the close bonds of Shelby’s hometown begin to fray under the weight of accusations and suspicion. Everyone around her is keeping secrets. Her adoptive father, her best friend, her best friend’s young daughter - they all have something to hide. Even Shelby is concealing a mistake that could jeopardize her career and her future.
Unearthing the lies of the people in Jeremiah’s life doesn’t get the police and the FBI any closer to finding him. As time passes and the case grows cold, Shelby worries that the mystery will stay buried forever under the deep, deep snow. But even the deepest snow melts in the spring.
When a tantalizing clue finally comes to light, Shelby must confront the darkest lie of all. Exposing the truth about Jeremiah will leave no one’s life untouched - including her own.
What the critics say
"Freeman brings all the characters to life, highlighting their strengths as well as the darkness that lies within each of them, thus adding a delicious sense of uncertainty as to their motives. Readers will have a tough time putting this one down." (Publishers Weekly)

Plot twists seem over engineered.
This book reads like a light weight wrote it. Certainly not like a ‘Jason Bourne’ type writer. The character development seemed somewhat shallow.
I skipped ahead to get the jist as it didn’t engage me enough to want to savour every word.
The plot construction was frustrating to me.

Have patience, and you’ll be rewarded.....
I story was not as I had expected. It got a little dull for a while and I almost gave up but I’m glad I didn’t! About halfway, the story picks up quickly and surprisingly. The result is a very very good story, with that...’Is it a true story?’.....kind of feel, just the way I like it. The tidbits are all there, as they are in any riveting movie, but you have to listen for them. As always, nothing is ever mentioned for no reason! The reader is excellent, by the way. Very well read, with a clear voice full of expression. AAA+

Did not like the main character.
I think this story would have been improved if the story was told by an omniscient narrator. Then we might have had a more 360 degree view of things instead of Shelby's self-centered tunnel vision The only character I really wanted to get to know was Tom, but he didn't seem to exist outside Shelby's sensibilities. I almost envied him losing his grasp on reality because what was going on inside his head had to be more interesting than what I was reading on the page.
This is one of those books where everything and everyone seems to be in a ten-foot square social bubble. The only characters at all in this small town are involved in the drama somehow or other, and there's not so much as a shopkeeper or bus driver to give the place any colour. I was underwhelmed with the story itself and when it became really far-fetched towards the end, I totally lost interest. I read through to the end, but by that time it was just meh.

Get this while it's the daily deal!!!!
Could not believe a brand new release from Brian Freeman is the Daily Deal! This is a no brainer, get the book. If you've listened to any of Freeman's other series (Jonathan Stride, Frost Easton or Cal Bolton) you will know that this is a Great book.
The publisher's summary gives a very good overview of this police procedural. The protagonist (Shelby Lake) has a very unique story about her infancy and how she came to be adopted by her father. The beginning of the story made me like Shelby's father and have a soft spot for her.
Ten years after a man is convicted of killing his wife and a little boy goes missing with out a clue, the first one turns up. Everything this story has led you to believe will be a fallacy. None of the characters will escape unscathed.
January LaVoy's narration is wonderful. Her inflections are perfect for each character.
This is an EXCELLENT book, it has my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.

Great police procedural!
This book must have been offered as a bonus the day it was released. Since there were no reviews, I thought at first this might be a new and not very experienced author, but I clicked on Brian Freedman's name and saw that he has many books under his belt and in fact was selected as the official author to continue Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne series. I love that series so I decided to give this one a try.
I downloaded it this morning and listened to it on my early morning walk. Obviously I haven't finished it yet but so far I'm enjoying it. The narrator is fine - has a good strong voice and is very convincing as the main character (the story is told in the first person).
I will add more when I finish the book. So far I am hooked on the story.
OK, here's an update. The narrator is flawless - distinctive voices for every character. The plot is interesting and the solution to the mystery was completely unexpected yet plausible in every detail. The book captivated me until the very end. Highly recommended!

Wow!
I don’t usually have time to do a full review but this book touched me and I was riveted from the beginning. Because this is an Audible book I put a lot of weight on the narrator, and I can tell right away if it’s going to be a good, bad, or great performance. This was not a great performance... it was SUPERB!!!! Her voice took me deeper and deeper as each character formed. The story was also wonderful. I LOVED it and listened every chance that I got- even in the shower! Lol! Bravo!!!

M'eh!
The story does suck you in but the ending just made me angry. I don't want to play spoiler but there are twists and turns that leave you saying "REALLY? You have this person do this and that person do the other thing, Really? How could that ever possibly happen?" One person gets totally hosed and the author resolves their situation in something like 2 sentences. I would be like "oh HELL no! I'm suing everybody!!!"
Aside from that, the author uses A LOT of silly similes that started to wear on me as the book went on. Not the best read and ultimately made me want to return the book to Audible, which I've never done before.

I have listened to half of this one so far, and to this point I completely recommend it! Excellent writing, and the characters have already been developed so well that I don't think I can stop listening until it's over! Going to be a long day, haha. January LaVoy is a great narrator, and makes the experience rich and exciting. Can't wait to see how it ends! I will edit this review to reflect the entire novel once I am finished.
UPDATE:
This book ended even better than it started. Man, what a great story. I was wrapped up in the characters right from the beginning, and it only got better. And what an ending!! I can not state it strongly enough... This is a fantastic book!

Eye rolled through the whole story
(may have spoilers up ahead)
I rolled my eyes way too much while listening to this. From the silly spiritual stuff that didn’t make much sense (why an owl? Why the dreams with Jeremy?), to the shallow relationships, to the story itself that didn’t quite fit right.
I thought the police work described in the book was awful- don’t you think an ABANDONED AREA in a small town would be one of the first places you look when a kid is missing- not even FBI thought to look there? How did it take 10 years to solve that? Why weren’t people taken in for questioning instead of casually being spoken to off the record? Why was it so easy to solve 10 years later with no evidence, just epiphany? It was just dumb.
A lot of the characters seemed unnecessary, and I also thought it was really lame how much Shelby cared about her high school past and defined her old school mates by who they were then. Also Anna was an awful character and I don’t believe she deserved redemption- it’s one thing to be a child and make a mistake, it’s another to grow up, let someone else pay for your crime, and have the audacity to be a huge bitch to everyone instead of trying to be a worth while human being.

I am hooked and I’m not even finished!
I got the book as the Daily Deal and would have paid full price! January LaVoy is one of my favorite narrators and the story had me from the first paragraph.

Outstannding!
I was surprised to see that Audible was offering a new release by an author the quality of Brian Freeman as an Audible Daily Deal. THE DEEP, DEEP SNOW is an outstanding novel of the type I have come to expect of Freeman. This one is different in that it is written in the first person of female protagonist sheriff's deputy Shelby Lake. January LaVoy does a really nice job of narration.

A tiny gem
While there were no true surprises, the book was very well written and narrated. At a time where anti-heroes/heroines are all the rage, and unreliable narrators par for the course, this book was a breath of fresh air. Believable characters, tightly crafted story, avoidance of cliches. A thoroughly enjoyable story of small-town life.
