Product Description:
Heavy Snow...Icy Desires...Cold-Blooded Murder
Clare Fergusson, St. Alban's new priest, fits like a square peg in the conservative Episcopal parish at Miller's Kill, New York. She is not just a 'lady,' she's a tough ex Army chopper pilot, and nobody's fool. Then a newborn infant left at the church door brings her together with the town's police chief, Russ Van Alstyne, who's also ex-Army and a cynical good shepherd for the stray sheep of his hometown. Their search for the baby's mother quickly leads them into the secrets that shadow Miller's Kill like the ever-present Adirondacks. What they discover is a world of trouble, an attraction to each other-and murder...

Call me a prude but I erased every swear word in this book before I read it and enjoyed the book immensely. Why do authors think they have to use God's name in vain (especially when a supposedly God-loving priest involved). I'm not the judge, but I'm not sure God likes to hear people belittle his name like that, and it is so not necessary to make a book a great book. I can only assume this is everyday language to the author.
I would read all of these books the stories are so well written. What a compeling plot, a baby left on church steps, all the people who are prospective suspects of the murders committed after. It really kept me guessing until the very end. Set in the Adroindack Mts. was both beautiful and remote. The characters were perfectly placed. However, I'd have to go through all the books and cross off all the offensive words and I don't know if I want to take the time. Plus, I'm sure there are enough people who love to read that kind of language to sell many books. I'm just not one of them. I'm sure no loss to the author.

I loved this book and it's characters, can't wait for the subsequent installment in the series!

I was stunned that a writer this good could have escaped my notice long enough to publish six books, though of course thrilled that there were already so many available. These are to die for; the characters are full-blown, the writing is intelligent, the mysteries are convincing and the ongoing love story is so, so moving. I would marry Russ Van Alstyne myself if I could get my hands on him! I am waiting for book number 7 with great eagerness. If you like Reginald Hill's work, you'll love this.

This is the very first of Ms. Spencer-Fleming's books that I have read. I enjoyed it overall. Some slow spots, but all books do that. Recommended.

I'm not a big fan of who-dun-it type books, but I really enjoyed this one. The writing style is entertaining, and the twists and turns of the plot kept me going back for more. I was sure I knew who did it....and I was totally wrong. I'll definitely be buying more books by this author.
