Description

Libby Allen receives an almost too-good-to-be-true invitation to join an elite group of figure skaters participating in an experimental training programme, deep in the Bavarian Forest.

Masterminded by reclusive ex-Olympian Lukas Wolff, the programme sees the skaters competing against each other to learn one of the most difficult and dangerous moves the sport has ever seen. The process is gruelling, but promises fame and limitless opportunities for whoever is the last skater standing.

Lukas is notorious for his controversial teaching methods, but his abrasive personality and increasingly erratic behaviour soon has the contestants questioning his motives.

And then one of the skaters dies in a mysterious accident during training.

With a blizzard raging and communications down, the group is cut off from the outside world. When a second skater perishes in harrowing circumstances, the remaining trainees find themselves ensnared in a deadly game of 'survival of the fittest'.

As more lives are lost, Libby is in a race against time to uncover the truth about the ice-cold killer in their midst.
