From the moment Ruth Sanders rips the glossy photo of a glacier from a magazine, she believes herself fated by ice. Her fascination bewilders sixteen-year-old Sylvie, unsettled already by her father s leaving. When Ruth s obsession grows to encompass a man, she uproots Sylvie and her sister from their small Midwestern town to follow him to Alaska. At the glacier, she and Sylvie tangle with wilderness, religion, a divided community, and one another. As their passions braid and cross, the exposed secrets of mother and daughter test their love. In precise and evocative prose, "Cold Spell" tells the parallel stories of a mother who risks everything to start over and a daughter whose longings threaten to undo them."
Autorenporträt
Deb Vanasse is the award-winning author of lots (18 at last count) of books. Much of what she knows about writing and life she learned in Alaska, where she also mastered the art of hauling water and cooking ptarmigan. She loves characters who tug at the heart and stories that grab you from the opening line and never let go.

Deb is the co-founder of Alaska's 49 Writers, and she has been invited to join the faculty at several writers' conferences. After 36 years in Alaska, she now lives on Oregon's north coast, where you'll find her strolling the beach with her husband and boxer dog.
