In The Cold As a young girl, Ashley Marin was kidnapped and held for months in an abandoned mine, high in the Colorado Rockies. Now, twenty years later, she must relive her worst nightmare... Because her tormentor has been paroled. And Ashley's fifteen-year-old daughter, Lauren, is missing. Chris Judge was there the night Ashley was rescued. That event changed his life and was the reason he became a police officer. Now, he's retired, divorced, and disillusioned, but he has never forgotten Ashley. And now, she needs his help more than ever. As they desperately search for her daughter, every step closer leads back to the past. And only one thing is certain...somewhere deep in the cold, the kidnapper is ready and waiting.
