Publisher Description

In this hard-boiled mystery by the USA Today–bestselling author of Dead Ringer, a coroner’s new case complicates her love life.

Deputy coroner Mattie Winston knows everyone in the charmingly small town of Sorenson, Wisconsin—except the latest body discovered in a desolate field. If a woman this attractive had moved into town, the news would have surely hit the gossip mill in record time. So who was the murdered femme fatale? Whose knife was left planted in her chest? The mystery deepens when detective Steven Hurley takes one look at the body and turns as white as the newly fallen snow . . .and excuses himself from the case.

It’ll take all of Mattie's forensic skills to unravel the increasingly bizarre clues and find the killer . . .before she herself becomes just another cold case in a frigid Midwest winter!

Getting Better

I’m hoping the author continues to get better at finding the line between humor, TMI, enough forensic detail to create realism & interest & crossing that line by mixing forensic observations with romantic impulses. It can be jarring & distracting & moves right into inappropriate & repellant at times. Earlier books were just ick, with Mattie leaning over & handling dead bodies while lusting over a coworker. I skipped a couple earlier books after reading the samples because they continued that trend. Fans of Evanovich will find the series light in humor, but the characters & relationship development add an element of fun & interest. A series worth following with mysteries that will keep you engaged & guessing.

Did you really have to use the word

Negroid? Couldn’t think of any appropriate words? Could’ve easily said “of African descent”
