Will Sarah solve another murder and save the lives of innocent people or will she become trapped in the snow and wind up frozen?
Sarah and Amanda are happily planning a girls-only week in Snow Falls while both of their husbands are out of town: an entire week to shop, laze around, bake brownies, and do girly stuff. But then a killer snowstorm arrives along with a whole lot of trouble. First, … arrives along with a whole lot of trouble. First, Sarah must take charge of the police station because half of the town is sick with a terrible flu, including the chief of police. Second, a dead man turns up in her coffee shop. Third, and strangest of all, three sweet and harmless old ladies claim they killed the dead man and an old Snow Falls family feud rears its ugly head. Sarah and Amanda tumble head-first into a strange case with more twists and turns than they realize.
Determined to prove the three elderly ladies are not the real killers—even though they claim to be—Sarah sets out on a troublesome path that finally leads her into the dark history of two families determined to avenge old hurts and long-ago thefts from the frontier days. Chasing down one lead after another with only Amanda at her side, Sarah begins to piece the puzzle together. Just when she is closing in on the answers, the snowstorm turns deadly, trapping her and Amanda inside the police station while the killer roams free in town. Determined not to give up and despite the storm threatening her life, Sarah must find a way to chase down the killer before three more murders happen on her watch.

Real or fool’s gold?
With the police force down with the flu and the non sick gentleman out of town that leaves our ladies in charge. Will it be a walk in the park for our ladies why of course not because there is a murder. The twists in this plot are something else a truly great read. Every taking place in a horrible winter storm was icing on top of the cake. Love the book hope you check it out. I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.
Wow. My first in this series and this is book 10. I love it. It has enough suspense / pull/ tension, whatever you want to call it to keep you reading. I love that.
I like how they had to brave the storm to get to the person who did it.
This is a fast easy to read and in one day cozy mystery. It definitely can be read all by itself and you do not feel lost. I would like to go back at sometime and understand the snowman thing but that does not take away from the plot.
This is my honest and freely given review. I did receive an ARC book.
