Synopsis

They’re ready to hit the slopes when things go downhill…
Sean and Sara were supposed to have a relaxing vacation in Vail, but it all goes up in a puff of powder when there’s a suspicious death on the mountain. And the deceased is not just anyone; it’s Adrian Blackwell, a two-time Olympic skiing gold medalist.
Rumor has it that Adrian died in a skiing accident, but he was too skilled for Sara to accept it as fact. Though she’s convinced Adrian was murdered and she’s itching to find the killer, she doesn’t want to disappoint Sean by ruining his ski trip.
Sean has never had the ability to say no to Sara before, but this time he comes close. It takes a call from their PI firm back in Albany to change his mind. A job’s come in to investigate Adrian’s death, and his agent is the one footing the bill, leaving Sean with more questions than answers.
Yet one major problem remains: their New York State PI licenses hold no legal authority in Colorado. But they still can’t help but look into Adrian’s death on the sly. This case will definitely involve some underhanded tactics, all while trying to dodge the local police during the course of the investigation.

My Review

I could not wait to read a new book of this series, these cozy mystery are short but very exciting with two great private investigators. The plot kept me on edge from start to finish. I was excited each time I got to turn the page.
Since their honeymoon Sean and Sara are persecuted by the murders. They have decided to take a short vacation in Vail, Colorado hoping to spend a few relaxing days together skiing. But their bad luck  pursued them. An Olympic champion in skiing is found dead, it seems that it was an accident but Sarah is not convinced. Sean doesn't want to ruin their holiday and then their PI license doesn't allow them to work in Colorado. But Sara's sense of justice prevails over everything and they investigate secretly trying to avoid being discovered by the police.
It's the tenth book in the series McKinley Mysteries Series, but you can easily read as a standalone.
It's a fast-paced and well written book with a perfect blend of romance and mystery This was the perfect book for a quiet and pleasant afternoon read!
I highly recommend this book!
