Icy Clutches (The Gideon Oliver Mysteries Book 6)

Gideon Oliver, a forensic anthropologist known as the Skeleton Detective, accompanies his wife Julie to a lodge in Glacier Bay, Alaska, where she is attending a conference. At the same lodge, a group of six scientists arrives on a memorial journey to revisit the site of a glacial avalanche that killed three of their colleagues thirty years earlier. The group's leader is M. Audley Tremaine, a popular science television personality and the sole survivor of that fatal avalanche. Tremaine is soon found hanged in his room. Shortly after, hikers discover human bones emerging from the glacier's foot—possibly the remains of the three scientists who died decades ago and have been traveling within the glacial flow. When the FBI arrives to investigate, they call on Dr. Oliver for his expertise. However, someone at the lodge wants the past to remain hidden and is willing to commit murder to keep it buried. Icy Clutches is the sixth book in the Gideon Oliver Mysteries series and can be read independently of the others.
