Frozen Crimes and Skyflakes

 


                                            


Hi everyone! Welcome to the Frozen Crimes Blog Hop! In the midst of an endless summer, we in the southwest can hardly remember rain, let alone snow. But we can dream, and here’s a question to get us started:

Whom would you want to be stuck with during a blizzard, and what would you do?

 Because the very thought of freezing fades my well-earned sunspots, I’d definitely need a distraction. Someone whose wit would rivet me in place with laughter as time advanced at warp-speed, whisking us away from the frightening storm in the comically cosmic fashion of Robin Williams as Mork – from Ork. Once his fascination with "Skyflakes" subsided, and he’d taken his unique sitting position on the sofa, I’d curl up by the fire with my copy of the book we’re all talking about today: Frozen Crimes!

When disasters strike around every corner, is it possible to have a happily-ever-after?

 



BLURB: Beth and Donovan are expecting their first child. Life couldn’t get any better…until a stalker makes his presence known. This person sends disturbing messages and unsettling items, but it isn’t long before his menacing goes too far.

Hoping for a peaceful Christmas, Donovan takes Beth to Michigan. Days into their trip, a winter storm named Nemesis moves in with the goal of burying the state. Snowdrifts surround their house, and the temperature drops below freezing.

Except, the storm isn’t the only nemesis they must face. Everyone’s lives are at stake—especially that of their unborn child. Will they survive, or will they become a frozen crime?

EXCERPT:

The crunch of the shovel pounding into the snow and ice filled his ears. It was all he could hear. The rest of the street was silent beneath its wintry blanket. Breathing was difficult with the icy air clogging his lungs. His nose burned. His throat was dry and on fire. But he ignored it, focusing on his task.

Crack, crack, crack.

He jabbed the shovel into a hunk of snow. On the third hit, it shattered into several pieces. He scooped them up and flung them to the side. He surveyed what remained. There was one big ball in the middle of the path that needed to be dealt with next. He moved over to it and struck it. That one impact had it severing in two. He was about to hit it again when something crashed into the back of his head.

Explosions of white light danced over his vision. Pain enveloped his skull.

The shovel slipped from his fingers. Blackness cloaked his mind, coaxing him into its depths.

Beth. Her name was a whisper in his head, as if his thoughts were being sucked into a wormhole.

His legs collapsed under his weight.

Cold. It seeped into him, consuming him. And then his consciousness fled down that same void that ate his thoughts.

I Survived Tsunami Crimes!





Chrys Fey here, reporting for Disaster 5 News. I am in Hilo, where a tsunami hit yesterday morning. I have Tangelo T. Peel with me, a survivor of the tsunami. Can you tell our viewers what happened and how you survived?
 


  
“Certainly. I was sitting with old Whiskey down at the Grinning Dolphin – Whiskey enjoys a morning jump-start – paying half attention to the local news on the overhead TV, and wondering when Miss Claire might finish shopping for beads, up the hill. As chaperone on this exotic adventure, I need to know these things.
I was drawn to a reflection in the television screen, of the beach; glistening in the early morning sun as waves lapped gently at its edges. The news anchor was saying something about a pair of newlyweds when the ocean inhaled and I grabbed Whiskey’s arm. I had to find Miss Claire!
Whiskey ran out of his flip-flops as I raced up the hill toward the Bead Shop, calling for him to follow. Warning sirens blared in the distance even as the ocean exhaled a 30 ft. wave that chased us halfway up the steep incline. And the water kept coming, spreading darkly over the landscape with remnants of destroyed homes and businesses in tow.
The Bead Shop was spared only by virtue of location, and a handful of patrons – including Miss Claire – were visibly shaken. I approached her as she stared wide-eyed at a small television on the checkout counter and asked if she was all right.”

“Of course, but hush a minute. A couple of precious newlyweds have met with blighted fate, the story is up next!”

BLURB: Beth and Donovan have come a long way from Hurricane Sabrina and the San Francisco earthquake. Now they are approaching their wedding day and anxiously waiting to promise each other a lifetime of love. The journey down the aisle isn’t smooth, though, as they receive threats from the followers of the notorious criminal, Jackson Storm. They think they’ll be safe in Hawaii, but distance can’t stop these killers. Not even a tsunami can.

This monstrous wave is the most devastating disaster Beth has ever faced. It leaves her beaten, frightened. Is she a widow on her honeymoon? As she struggles to hold herself together and find Donovan, she’s kidnapped by Jackson's men.

Fearing her dead, Donovan searches the rubble and shelters with no luck. The thought of her being swept out to sea is almost too much for him to bear, but the reality is much worse. She’s being used as bait to get him to fall into a deadly trap.

If they live through this disaster, they may never be the same again.
