Mel joins forces with the resort's delish manager, Jack Stockton, to prove her friend's innocence.

Pages : 277
Book Description
Now that prize-winning photojournalist Callie Cassidy has returned to the mountainside village of her youth, she believes she's put crime scenes and corpses in her rear view mirror. So how does she end up-once again-focused on murder? Callie Cassidy is no stranger to dead bodies. Two decades as a photojournalist landed her face to face with so many of them that her colleagues at The Washington Post dubbed her Queen of the Dead. But these days, having resigned in disgrace from her prestigious career, Callie believes her days of hanging out with corpses are behind her. She has returned to Rock Creek Village, Colorado, the mountainside town of her youth, where she licks her wounds in a cabin on her parents' Rocky Mountain ski resort property. But when her mother persuades her to abandon her fetal position beneath the quilts and take a photography gig at the Snowflake Swirl winter ball, Callie's foray back into the real world lands her smack in the middle of town drama. But before the first partygoer arrives, Callie stumbles across a deadly scene. A former classmate, one of the "mean girls" from high school, lies lifeless on the floor of her office. Another woman from Callie's past crouches above the body, holding a bloody letter opener. The conclusion is obvious-at least to rookie detective Raul Sanchez. But Callie believes there's more to the picture. With her lovable golden retriever Woody and an adopted stray cat named Carl, whose investigative skills may rival her own, Callie sets out to find the real murderer. Because unless she, her pets, and a quirky group of villagers can solve the mystery, Callie's photos won't be the only thing being framed.
