Red Snow

TWO BODIES

One suicide. One cold-blooded murder. Are they connected? And who’s really pulling the strings in the small Swedish town of Gavrik?

TWO COINS

Black Grimberg liquorice coins cover the murdered man's eyes. The hashtag #Ferryman starts to trend as local people stock up on ammunition.

TWO WEEKS

Tuva Moodyson, deaf reporter at the local paper, has a fortnight to investigate the deaths before she starts her new job in the south. A blizzard moves in. Residents, already terrified, feel increasingly cut-off. Tuva must go deep inside the Grimberg factory to stop the killer before she leaves town for good. But who’s to say the Ferryman will let her go?

‘A complex plot suffused with the nightmarish quality of Twin Peaks and a tough-minded, resourceful protagonist add up to a stand-out read.’ Guardian

'For all those who loved Dark Pines by Will Dean I can tell you that the forthcoming sequel, Red Snow is even better. Scandi noir meets Gormenghast. Just wonderful. Can’t get enough of Tuva Moodyson...' Mark Billingham

‘A treat… Total Scandi vibes, a cracking plot and a hugely likeable heroine: the dream.’ Grazia

‘Will’s writing is so original and just incredibly elegant. I LOVED Dark Pines and Red Snow is even better.’ Joanna Cannon

‘Even better than the original.' The Telegraph, best thrillers and crime fiction of 2019 so far

‘A satisfyingly gruesome style, fast pace and, most importantly, he has, in Tuva Moodyson, a compelling central character... Smart observations abound.’ Irish Independent

‘Dean masterfully ramps up the tension and claustrophobia throughout the story’s sinister series of events before delivering an unexpected and satisfying finale. Tuva is a wonderful creation and Dean’s series is not to be missed.’ Daily Express
