A hometown hero meets a chilling end in this novel by a USA Today–bestselling author who "keep[s] you glued until the very last page" (Tracy Weber, Agatha Award nominated author of the Downward Dog Mysteries).

Winter Carnival comes to Serenity, Nevada, and with it Tj Jensen finds her schedule busier than ever. Not only is her ski and snowboard team heavily involved in demonstrations and local competitions, but her ragtag choir is about to debut in their first live performance. To make matters even more complicated, someone has killed Travis Davidson, a town favorite son, world-class snowboarder, and Olympic hopeful.

Tj is determined not to get involved in the investigation—until she learns the prime suspect is Chelsea Hanson, her high school boyfriend's sister. Although there's no shortage of locals with a grudge against the hometown hero, even Tj has to admit there's good cause to suspect Chelsea of the murder. Nevertheless, balancing bridesmaid duties, Winter Carnival obligations, show choir duty, and after-hours investigation, Tj sets out to prove Chelsea innocent . . .

"Her novels are filled with a little mystery and a little romance which makes for a murderous adventure." —Tonya Kappes, USA Today–bestselling author of Fixin' To Die
