The inn was finally full. Then the snow sealed them in - with a killer.
For the first time in three years, every room at the Harbor Light Inn is booked. A society wedding has taken the whole house: forty guests, a feuding moneyed family, and a December storm that everyone swore would turn out to sea.
It doesn't.
By morning the inn is buried, the phone lines are down, Deputy Sam Reyes is stranded a mile down an impassable lane - and the bride's imperious grandmother is dead in her bed. The doctor among the guests calls it her heart. Nora Marsh, innkeeper and burned-out Boston chef, knows better. She has spent three years learning that the truth of any house is written in the small things no one is meant to notice - and one small thing in that room is very wrong.
With no law for miles and the snow falling for days, Nora is alone with a houseful of strangers and the one among them who is not grieving. To find a killer who is nothing like the ones her little town taught her to catch, she'll have to set aside everything she knows about Gull Harbor - and read a table full of people who would rather she didn't.
Some guests check out. One was never going to leave.
A locked-house winter mystery in the beloved Harbor Light Inn series - cozy, clever, and quietly devastating. Recipes included.
