Some places are called Paradise for a reason. Others just want you to think they are. When retired police sergeant Mike Perkins and his wife Sarah buy their dream lakefront cabin in Paradise, Michigan, they expect a peaceful retirement filled with stunning lake views and friendly small-town charm. What they don't anticipate is the previous owner's mysterious disappearance... or the locals' strange reluctance to talk about it. Something is very wrong in Paradise. The townspeople share an unspoken understanding—a wariness that surfaces whenever winter approaches. They speak in hushed tones about the brutal seasons that claim far too many lives. They avoid certain areas when the ice begins to form. And they never, ever, venture out alone after dark. Mike's investigative instincts tell him the official explanations don't add up. Missing snowmobilers. Unexplained accidents. Bodies that are never found. The numbers are staggering, but everyone seems resigned to accept them as the price of living in Michigan's harsh Upper Peninsula. Until Mike discovers what the locals have always known—and desperately hoped to keep secret. Deep beneath the pristine waters of Lake Superior, something ancient stirs as winter tightens its grip. Something that has been hunting these shores for longer than anyone dares to imagine. Something that knows exactly when the ice will be thick enough to support its terrible purpose. Now Mike must choose: flee Paradise while he still can, or stay and face a nightmare that challenges everything he thought he knew about the natural world. Because in the Upper Peninsula, winter doesn't just kill—it hunts. M.C. Peak weaves local folklore, cutting-edge science, and heart-stopping suspense into a thriller that will make you question every shadow on the ice and every sound in the winter night. Perfect for readers who crave atmospheric horror, small-town secrets, and creatures that defy explanation. The truth about Paradise is waiting beneath the ice. Are you brave enough to discover it?
