A Cold Case of Murder
(2026)(The first book in the Fur on the Ice Mystery series)
A novel by Hailey Hartley
Jenna Whitmore runs the Frostpine Community Ice Arena with precision and pride, managing everything from maintenance schedules to rental bookings with her trusty sheltie Scout by her side. But when she discovers the demanding figure skating coach Victoria Sterling strangled in the costume storage room, Jenna's orderly world is thrown into chaos. The police quickly zero in on a teenage skater who'd been fighting with Victoria, but Scout's unusual behavior and Jenna's intimate knowledge of the arena's rhythms suggest the truth is far more complicated than anyone realizes.
As Jenna navigates grieving students, ambitious skating parents, and staff members with secrets of their own, she uncovers a web of financial fraud that reaches far beyond simple coaching fees. Victoria had been running a lucrative side business, and someone finally decided to put a stop to it. Every clue points to someone who knew the arena inside and out, someone who understood exactly when the hallways would be empty, which security cameras had dead zones, and how to move through the building undetected. With Scout's keen nose alerting her to hidden evidence and her own practical mind piecing together schedules and discrepancies, Jenna races to find the killer before an innocent person takes the fall.
In the cutthroat world of competitive figure skating, ambition and betrayal can be as deadly as any triple axel. Jenna must use all her organizational skills and Scout's instincts to separate the innocent from the guilty, because in Frostpine, even the most trusted members of the community might be hiding dangerous secrets beneath their polished exteriors.
