Ice: A Tale of Horror (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781782011996)

When Tom Shepherd returns to the Swiss mountain from where his wife disappeared while skiing five years previously, he has no idea what dark forces are about to be released. The picturesque charm of the ski resort masks a black history of dreadful deeds hidden but not forgotten, waiting to be unearthed. But the mountain that looms over the little town like a grim guardian holds an even more ancient secret. The time has come for its power to be unleashed once more. The consequences will be terrible. --- Frank Pickering was born in Sheffield, studied education at the University of Reading, and taught English at schools in Wiltshire and Dorset. As well as writing novels and short stories he is also a musician and prize-winning poet. He now lives in Cornwall.
