Icy Clutches Audiobook (Free)

Edgar Award-winning series: On a trip to Glacier Bay, Alaska, the Skeleton Detective pursues a cold-hearted killer who buries evidence within an avalanche.

Gideon Oliver expects to be amicably bored when he assumes the function of ‘accompanying partner’ at a lodge in the magnificent wild nation of Glacier Bay, Alaska, where his forest ranger wife, Julie, is going to a conference. But it turns out to be exactly his cup of tea. There is certainly another group at the lodge: six researchers on the memorial trip about Icy Handbags to the site of the thirty-year-old glacial avalanche that killed three of their colleagues. Their leader is usually TV’s most popular science personality, the unctuous M. Audley Tremaine, who is the only real survivor from the fatal avalanche. But he does not survive very long and is shortly discovered hanged in his area. If that’s not upsetting more than enough, shocked hikers discover human being bones emerging in the base of the glacier-are they the shattered remains from the three who died, finally seeing daylight after their two-mile, three-decade trip inside the glacial flow?

When the FBI looks for specialist help, everyone agrees how fortunate it really is that Dr. Oliver, the famed Skeleton Detective, is normally on the scene. Everybody, that is, but the one who desires ancient history to remain that way-and who is convinced that murder is the surest method to keep the past buried.
