“When the opening scene grips me, I get excited, cross my fingers and toes, and hope the rest of the book is just as gripping. And it was. The author had me coming and going, with no solid idea of the who, what, and why. And the characters were genuine.”  FUOnlyKnew

“Frozen Lives grabs the reader from the first pages, elegantly introducing a family fighting through broken relationships and the deep pain of anticipatory grief as they search for their missing young son; all searching for the hope and connection that feels frighteningly out of their grasp.

“Jennifer Dornbush scares the living hell out of me. When I want to stay up all night, I just read one of her books, and Frozen Lives doesn’t disappoint.

A terrific story.” Don Bruns, bestselling author and editor of Back in Black
