She was only partially thawed when footsteps clumped up the steps and a fist banged on the door. It was Arne Jensen, the Drakes’s nearest neighbor and the only year-round resident of the area. A tall, spare man in his late fifties who lived alone and socialized little, his sole concession to modern amenities was the telephone he’d had installed in his A-Frame cabin three winters before.

“That was thoughtful of him, and I do, thanks.”
“Good. Then I will go. The weather is getting worse. We’re in for a very big storm tonight.”
He was right. In the last half hour, the wind had risen to a mournful howl, a fitting accompaniment for Georgia’s mood.
