Silent as the Snow
Four friends.
One tragic death.
20 years of secrets and lies.
One wintery night, when they are young, Anna and her three friends Rudy, Seth, and Dougal are involved in an accident in which a stranger is killed – that night it snows heavily, covering everything up. They agree to keep it a secret, but then one of them is accused of murder and sent to prison.
Twenty years later, Anna and her friends are thrown together again following a funeral, and this time Anna is forced to finally look at what actually happened all those years ago. Anna’s recollection, however, is not what her friends remember.
Could she really have been mistaken about what happened?
Will digging up the past reveal a truth she would rather not know?
And what will it mean to her carefully constructed life if the last 20 years has been nothing more than a lie?
