Mystery
The frigid winter months are mighty slow in the PI biz for
Julie Collins and her partner, Kevin Wells—until the duo is
hired by a young woman to investigate problems at her
grandfather’s assisted living facility, where they encounter
lax security, unqualified healthcare personnel, and a shady
senior volunteer organization. Julie barely has time to delve deeper into the puzzling case
before she reluctantly finds herself in an isolated cattle
shelter on the Collins ranch with her father during a raging
blizzard. There is no escape from her father or from the
biting cold and bitter memories.
A missing hired ranch hand found dead on the ranch only
complicates matters further. In trying to uncover the truth
about the man'’s death, Julie is forced to wrestle with
issues that make her question old wounds and new family
loyalties. Kevin'’s reckless involvement with their new client tests
the bounds of professionalism, and Julie’'s relationship
with Tony Martinez is strained, as he deals with power
struggles within the Hombres organization, putting them both
in jeopardy. When the bodies and the snow pile up, Julie seems at odds
with everyone, leaving her to wonder if she’s being blinded
to the cold, hard truths in her life by love . . . or by hate.
