Northern Roulette

“One quiet town. One dead stranger. One deadly game in motion.”

Northern Roulette by B. Baskerville is a gripping tale set in the icy stillness of a remote northern town, where everyone knows everyone—or at least, they think they do. When the body of a mysterious outsider is found in a snow-dusted alley, questions swirl like the falling snow. Who was he? Why was he here? And who wanted him dead?

Local journalist Evelyn Shaw finds herself swept into the heart of the investigation, chasing a story that’s far more personal than she ever anticipated. Her hometown has its share of secrets, but none like this. Each clue draws her deeper into a web of long-buried grudges, closed-door meetings, and the unsettling realization that someone close to her is hiding a truth darker than the northern night.

With a backdrop of frozen forests, half-lit cafes, and tight-lipped townsfolk, Evelyn races against the chill and time to uncover a truth the town desperately wants to keep hidden. The roulette of suspicion spins, and each person is a possible player—maybe even Evelyn herself.

Atmospheric, intelligent, and quietly haunting, Northern Roulette delivers the kind of mystery that lingers long after the final page. This is not just a whodunit—it’s a slow-burning unraveling of character, loyalty, and what happens when silence turns deadly.
