Book Description:
Jane Jeffry, suburban sleuth extraordinare, and her friend, Detective Mel VanDyne, have braved a blizzard to join her friend Shelley at a Colorado ski resort. In spite of having all their kids along, Jane and Shelley imagine a few mindless days of relaxation. But their hopes are dashed on their first attempt to ski when Jane careens into a snowman that hides a very real -- and very dead -- body.
The slopes are littered with suspects -- a convention of genealogists led by a political fruitcake who thinks she's going to put her hand-picked Tsar on the Russian throne, a mysterious crimson-clad skier who's always on the horizon, and ex-stockbroker who's hiding from his investors, and an irate tribe of Native Americans. Jane has to take a census of the suspects and make some grave assumptions about who was vacationing with malicious intent.

While I really enjoy this series, this book moved a bit slowly for me. I liked the setting of the Colorado resort, but the actual murder plot left me confused.

Fun mystery with Jane and Shelley vacationing in Colorado. Quick read, involves a geneology twist.

Jane Jeffry heads up to a Colorado ski resort. Only Jane would find a snowman with a dead body inside. Fun & with lots of wackos to point the finger at.

Jane Jeffrey, her family, and her boyfriend Mel Van Dyne join neighbor Shelley Novak and family at a ski resort. They find a body--of course. I found this plot a bit silly, but Churchill is always fun to read.

Jane Jeffrey is great! I love a smart mom who's long on sense and fun. And I love the Russian Tsar angle - great!

Jane Jeffry finally gets to go on vacation to a great resort. While she is there, two murders take place. So her vacation is ruin until she figures out who did it and why.
I enjoyed this book because I didn't figure out who did it and why until the end.

This is very much a cozy mystery (no graphic violence, amateur detective). It's a very fast, light read and flows very well.
Surburban singe mom Jane Jeffrey finds murder at a Colorado ski resort and interrupts her vacation to solve the crime with her friend Shelley. The slopes are littered with suspects, from a convention of genealogists led by a political fruitcake who thinks she will put here hand-oicked Tsar on the Russian throne, an ex-stockbroker who's hiding from his investors, a mysterious skier.
This is third Jane Jeffry novel I have read, and thus far it is my favorite. Jane and the gang leave suburbia for a snowy vacation and she still can't avoid stumbling into a dead body!
Once I started to read, I couldn't put it down until I finished it! And then I wanted to read another one of her books! I am hooked on Jill Churchill! Lauren L.
