It’s Christmas in Owl’s Nest, Maine. Avery Winston, owner of Everything Outdoors, is excited to host a 10th anniversary weekend at Big Moose Mountain Resort for six people from North Carolina. Falling snow makes for a truly romantic sleighride for her clients. Except for one thing: they arrive arguing. Nothing she does—homemade hot chocolate, s’mores, or fun conversation—diverts their impatience.
For the first time since opening her business, Avery prays for the weekend to be over. To return to the peace and quiet at home. No. Scratch that. It's not quiet at home since her thought-dead husband showed up the day before she left town.
Unfortunately, the weekend is extended when one of the party is found buried to the waist in a snowbank. Who shows up to work the case? None other than Mack Thibodeau—the hot-for-her police chief with a serious case of jealousy. Which tells everything about how he reacted to the ex’s appearance. Now Mack wants to ‘talk’ about it. Too little too late?
Emotions bubble as fast and hard as the water in the jacuzzi. Which ones will burst first?
Genre: Cozy Mystery
