"Cold and steel ignite into an inferno love, betrayal—and death. A front man for a tinhorn gambling syndicate...a woman whose body had never been touched...a dissatisfied husband...a lesbian—and all of them strangers. Then the snow came, thick as mud, cold, cruel snow, and the swift streamliner could not break through the icy wall. Strangers they were, one minute before, but now—while the storm howled outside and passions raged within—they were lovers, killers, savage beasts. A train stands still in the cold wasteland of America, and for these four people, time stands still, civilization fades, and the call of flesh is heard in the darkened corridors." — quoted from this book's Armchair Fiction reprint product page on Amazon as of 2018-02-03.
