Crime & Suspense

After her employer mysteriously dies, a young woman must team up with a dashing colonel to uncover the truth and clear her name.

When an unseasonable snowstorm brings an assortment of stranded travelers to Lady Beatrice Lindley’s door, companion Miss Ruth Harrington welcomes them in, flustered though she is by the towering presence of Colonel Hugo Prentiss. But the next morning, Ruth’s quiet existence on the moor is shattered—Lady Beatrice is dead!

Convinced there’s more to her employer’s demise than meets the eye, Ruth seeks the one man who can help her uncover the truth—the enigmatic Colonel. But in a world where nothing is what it seems, can Ruth and Hugo come to put their trust in each other?
