Murder in the Snow: A Small Town Mystery with a Senior Sleuth

About Murder in the Snow: A Small Town Mystery with a Senior Sleuth

She came home from Christmas to find a dead man on her doorstep. The blizzard had buried everything overnight. But when Miss Wilma Wade opens her curtains that morning, the snow isn't the only thing waiting outside.

There's a man in her front yard—face down, frozen—and Wilma has never seen him before in her life. Detective Fellow is baffled. The body is old—the man didn't die last night.

Someone moved him here deliberately, dumped him on the doorstep of Barwick's most observant resident. Whether it's a warning or a setup, Wilma intends to find out. As the investigation deepens, bodies go missing from the morgue and her neighbour Maisie Worthington turns out to be hiding a secret that goes further back than anyone guessed.

Wilma's wild imagination, she's been told, is her most dangerous quality. Right now, it might also be her only weapon.
