WOW this is an exciting page turner firstly what a fabulous setting the Snowy Mountains, I love Charlotte Pass it is a fabulous resort and I do love a story that is set when it is snowing and MS Christine has done brilliantly with her characters and the unravelling of mystery when human bones are found by ski patroller Vanessa Bell, I do hope that you will pick this one up, you will not want to put it down till you get to the bottom of the mystery, this one had me guessing till the very end.
Vanessa is very good at her job and she loves it, used to working around the world this is her first season back in her home country and she is excited about the Winterfest celebrations to be held at Charlotte Pass, when she discovers human bones, this puts a damper on the party and festivities and the need for the homicide squad from Sydney to be called in, and Vanessa is more than willing to help in any way she can.
Pierce Ryder is pulled of a case that he is working on to look into the human bones that have been found, he meets up with his old mentor who worked on a case about a missing woman in this ski resort back in 1964 and he is convinced that these bones are the remains of that missing woman. Pierce meets Vanessa and is happy for her help as he jumps in to unravel the mystery when another murder takes place, upping the need to find out what happened as quickly as possible.
This is a story that has everything that a suspense reader would love and for the romance reader there is a great romance as well, it is fast paced with fabulous characters, Pierce is a great detective questioning suspects who were there back in 1964 to uncover a killer and Vanessa who is always willing to help and knows the area really well, it is intriguing, very well written, I loved the story from start to finish and the journey that Pierce and Vanessa had to find such happiness that was so well deserved. This is a book that I highly recommend.
