At last, an action thriller for men and women! There are no two-dimensional females in this riveting thriller; in fact, it’s rather the opposite.

The story takes place in the depths of a Minneapolis winter. As the first snow begins to blanket the city, the local children head to the park for the annual snowman competition. It’s fun and frolics all round until one of the kids notices a human face poking out of a snowman. Detectives Gino and Magozzi of the Minneapolis police Department are first on the scene, divesting the corpse of its icy covering. And as the snowman body count rockets, the detectives begin to suspect a wife-beating ex-con. But are they just being Snow Blind?

Despite the rather weak ending, I found this rather exciting. It’s a page-turner that will chill you to the marrow during those long winter evenings. You’ll never look at snowmen in the same way again!

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
