Snow is falling, the road down the mountain is closed, and the fire is crackling in the great stone hearth. Welcome to A Frosty Peak Cozy Mystery, a snowbound series set at a historic ski lodge where the storms always bring something out of hiding.
Meet Tess Morgan
Tess is the chief receptionist at the historic Bluebird Lodge in Silver Crest Valley. Calm, watchful, and never without a cup of her own pine-needle tea, she knows every creaking stair, every drafty room, and every story the locals would rather forget. She also keeps the lodge's records, and when something doesn't add up, Tess is the one who notices.
The People of Bluebird Lodge
- Martha is the head housekeeper, formidable and motherly in equal measure.
- Sheriff Amos Vance keeps the law in Silver Crest Valley, snowdrifts and all.
- Marcus Finch arrives as a mysterious guest and becomes one of Tess's closest allies.
- Gus keeps the old lodge running, and young staffers Cora and Danny keep it lively.
Why Start with Book 1
Each book is a complete mystery. But the lodge family grows with every winter, and the valley you meet in Book 1 changes because of what Tess uncovers there. Start at the beginning and you'll know everyone by the fire.
