Point Load

The last time Sutton Reyes caught a company falsifying a mountain's danger, it cost five people their safety and one man his career.

This time, the man running the operation studied exactly how that happened - and made sure he'd never leave the kind of evidence that caught his predecessor.

Three weeks into her new job auditing safety practices for the same holding company that owned the resort from her last case, Sutton flies into a remote Alaska heli-ski operation on a tip from its own safety coordinator: a landing zone was quietly swapped the night before a high-profile shoot, with nothing on paper but a verbal excuse nobody can disprove.

She's right. She can't prove it fast enough. And when a skier drops into exactly the wrong spot on a narrow couloir, the mountain answers with a different kind of violence than Sutton has faced before - fast, concentrated, and merciless, in terrain with no cell signal, no satellite backup, and a storm closing the only way out.

What she has left is a documentary crew's forgotten microphone, a whistleblower with a fractured ankle and a photographic memory for paperwork, and about eighteen hours to turn a man's own careless words into the one piece of proof he never thought to control.

The concluding book in the Windslab duology - for readers who want their survival thrillers with a cover-up that fights back.
