Frozen Shroud
«'The ongoing story of Hannah and Daniel puts the 'icing on the cake.' The 'cake' is a beautifully constructed novel with characters that are rounded and believable, all mixed together with a clever plot and a satisfying end. The 'jam' that holds it all together is the atmosphere of the lakes in autumn which Edwards writes so well. Here is murder past and present with themes of jealousy and obsessive love.I highly recommend this book. If you haven't read the series, start now.' Mystery People»
