About this book
Every room at a remote winter resort holds a death; turn up the heat, and it rises with enough weight to threaten an already strained family.
At an isolated mountain hotel, warmth gives the dead solid bodies, while cold strips their weight away. As his father grows enthralled by the hotel’s ghosts and keeps feeding the boiler, a sensitive boy must decide how much heat his family can risk. To lead them out alive, he must seize control of the heating and dismantle their shelter with care — turning every room into a choice between survival and buried violence.
