More about the book

Set against the backdrop of a frigid winter day in Eastport, Maine, the narrative captures the eerie stillness of a snow-covered town. The streets are deserted, blanketed in deep snow, creating a haunting atmosphere of silence, occasionally broken by the distant sound of a shovel scraping. The scene depicts the struggle against the bitter cold, as fleeting figures emerge briefly to clear the snow before retreating indoors for warmth. This vivid imagery evokes a sense of isolation and the harsh realities of winter life.
