"Siler gives a gripping portrayal of life on the skids in an unforgiving landscape."
Booklist
"This is poetry with attitude."
The New York Times Book Review
From the bestselling author of Easy Money.
After a stint in a New Mexico prison cell, Megan returns to desolate, wintry Montana and gets a job repossessing cars. But her latest assignment is not nearly as straightforward as it should be. The owner of the car has been stabbed to death, and the spiral of violence that began with his murder soon escalates. A gang of criminally minded Russian immigrants and a woman with a red dragon tattoo seem to have a pressing interest in the car - or in something that's hidden inside it. And nothing and no one will stop them finding it...
"Megan is a mesmerizing tough-as-nails whiskey-drinking repo woman, who has returned to Missoula, Montana, looking for a fairy tale ending to the violent scandal that ruined her family. Betty Bobbitt's raspy voice couldn't be more perfect for the story of this complex protagonist. Often Bobbitt's first-person narration sounds like the sulfur tip of a match drawn across a grainy flint. Her Russian accent for secondary characters sounds delightfully straight out of old movies on the Cold War. When her voice quivers as she recounts temps at 19 degrees below zero and wet blue jeans iced to stiff boards, the realism just might cause an instant chill. This audiobook is pure delight!"

"There are no easy answers in Iced, no convenient resolution . . . It's this unflinching honesty that sets Iced apart from its rivals. That and the dark, atmospheric quality of the writing."
