Cover of Snow by Jenny Milchman


Cover of Snow by Jenny Milchman

Nora Hamilton awakens on a cold wintry morning in the small Northern Adirondack village of Wedeskyull and knows something is wrong.  Her husband is not in bed beside her and he did not wake her even though he knew she had an important meeting that morning.  She hears a noise in the attic and goes to investigate.  Her husband has hung himself.

Why did this well liked police officer kill himself?  How did Nora not know that her husband was so troubled?  How well did she know the man she married?  Why does it seem that no one wants her to find answers?

If you are a fan of mysteries, especially those set in small towns, you will find a lot to like here.  Make sure you cozy up with some hot chocolate because the author does a really good job conveying how bone chilling the weather in upstate New York can be.
