A beautiful, idyllic refuge becomes a place of danger beyond the ordinary…

In Nevada Barr’s Winter Study, Anna Pigeon finds trouble brewing amongst a pack of wolves. Perfect for fans of Sue Grafton and Janet Evanovich.


‘Strong, evocative writing… frigid winds blow through Winter Study as the suspense heats up’ – South Florida Sun-Sentinel

It is January, and Park Ranger Anna Pigeon is sent to Isle Royale in Lake Superior to learn about managing and understanding wolves, as her home base of Rocky Mountain National Park might soon have its own pack of the magnificent, much maligned animals. She’s lodging in the island’s bunkhouse with the famed wolf study team, along with two scientists from Homeland Security, who are assessing the study with an eye to opening the park in the winters – an act that would effectively bring an end to the fifty-year project.
However, soon after Anna’s arrival, the wolf packs under observation begin to behave in peculiar ways…

What readers are saying about Winter Study:

‘Plenty of thrills and chills in Winter Study. You may want to get under a blanket to read it’

‘An engrossing adventure tale’

‘This was an exceptionally enjoyable book – absolutely riveting

A nifty thriller... Barr's one heckuva writer... Her tales read like Patricia Cornwell exploring the great outdoors

What lifts the Anna Pigeon novels far above most other contemporary amateur sleuth mysteries is Barr's exquisite writing - it swoops, it soars, sails then catches you unawares beneath the heart and takes your breath away
