Decades ago, the vanishing of Sandy Lipton and her unborn child shattered a small West Virginia town, leaving young Chris Matheson branded guilty by whispers and suspicion.

Now a retired FBI agent, Chris returns home to find the cloud of doubt still looming over his family. Determined to uncover the truth, he enlists the Geezer Squad, a sharp-witted team of retired law enforcement specialists posing as a book club, each wielding unique investigative expertise. As they chip away at the icy layers of a long-frozen case, buried secrets, small-town grudges, and ties to a powerful local dynasty surface, revealing a chilling conspiracy. With danger stalking their every move and scorching clues pointing to a cunning killer, Chris races to unravel Sandy's fate before the past claims another victim.

Packed with relentless suspense, intricate puzzles, and jaw-dropping twists, ICE is a pulse-pounding whodunit that will grip mystery fans until its shocking final revelation.
