  One bitterly cold February night at the remote MacKinnon Hotel, Remie Yorke begins her last shift at the front desk as the snow begins to fall. She has booked a one-way flight for the next day—and she's never coming back to Scotland. Or so she thinks. 
   
   
   
  As the storm quickly invades the surrounding Highlands, the roads become impassable and the phone lines fall dead. When the icy temperatures plummet further, an injured man stumbles into the hotel lobby from the blizzard. Police Constable Don Gaines has been in a car accident on the mountain road, and Remie welcomes him to safety. Gaines tells her that the other survivor of the accident is a dangerous prisoner who is now at-large; and Gaines is sure he is heading their way. 
   
   
   
  Then a second injured visitor arrives—also introducing himself as Constable Don Gaines. Both claim to want to protect Remie and the hotel's remaining guests. Both are convincing. Remie doesn't know who to trust. 
   
   
   
  But she must endure a deadly night before dawn breaks, and if she doesn't succumb to the cold, one of these men will surely kill her first. And she has no idea why they have chosen to come to the MacKinnon Hotel . . .

  Not all prizes are gifts... 
  Special Agent Dr. Autumn Trent is relishing the moments after waking up next to Aiden Parrish when their romantic Sunday morning is cut short by a call from a friend. His niece has disappeared...along with two other teens in a picture-perfect Connecticut community in a case that's as perplexing as it is concerning. The teens are all strong students with privileged upbringings on the verge of graduating high school. Who would want to hurt them? And why? 
  More importantly...who’s next? 
  As the investigation expands, it soon becomes clear that there’s more going on in the seemingly idyllic town than anyone realizes—something loathsome and depraved—and the kids of those involved are paying the price for a prize none of them wanted. 
  When the puppeteer behind the scenes ups the ante, the situation grows deadly. How many will die before Autumn and the team take him down? 
  Autumn’s Prize, the eighth book in Mary Stone’s Autumn Trent Series, is a gripping and suspenseful peek into depravity that will make you think twice about accepting gifts.
