(C++) Function to calc Determinant of a dynamic matrix

I'm currently working on a program that is supposed to ask user for some data and create 2 matrix based on them. Later on program should also have option to calculate determinant for these matrix. I wanted to have this done in function (int determinant), however when i try to use it for matrix 3x3 or bigger the program crush with error (Process returned -1073741819 (0xC0000005) execution time : 23.503 s)

What might be causing it?

Thank you for your help.

You were right that I not declared space for submatrix

I modified my function and it now looks like below (and works as intended)

int determinant(int **a, int matsize) {
int det = 0;
int** submatrix = new int*[matsize];
for (int i = 0; i < matsize; ++i)
submatrix[i] = new int[matsize];

if (matsize == 1)
    return a[0][0];
else if (matsize == 2)
    return ((a[0][0] * a[1][1]) - (a[1][0] * a[0][1]));
else {
    for (int x = 0; x < matsize; x++) {
    int subi = 0;
    for (int i = 1; i < matsize; i++) {
    int subj = 0;
    for (int j = 0; j < matsize; j++) {
    if (j == x)
    continue;
    submatrix[subi][subj] = a[i][j];
    subj++;
    }
    subi++;
    }
    det = det + (pow(-1, x) * a[0][x] * determinant(submatrix, matsize - 1));
    }
    }

    for (int i = 0; i < matsize; ++i)
    delete [] submatrix[i];
    delete [] submatrix;

    return det;
}
