Special X · #14

Red Snow

Michael Slade

The 2010 Winter Olympics are coming to Vancouver, and Mephisto is ready to strike.

Of all the villains lawyer Michael Slade has created based on his experience in more than one hundred real-life murder cases, Mephisto is the maddest. ("Slade knows psychos inside out." — Toronto Star)

A raging winter storm and a team of mercenaries have cut Whistler Mountain off from the rest of the world. Bent on bloody revenge, Mephisto attacks the members of Special X — the psycho hunters of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police — and that's just the start of his horrific plan. Red Snow is a three-ring circus of mystery, horror, and suspense. It has everything: whodunits and impossible crimes, psychological terror and police procedure. Let the games begin!
