From the Back Cover:
Heavy Snow...Icy Desires...Cold-Blooded Murder
Clare Fergusson, St. Alban's new priest, fits like a square peg in the conservative Episcopal parish at Miller's Kill, New York. She is not just a "lady," she's a tough ex Army chopper pilot, and nobody's fool. Then a newborn infant left at the church door brings her together with the town's police chief, Russ Van Alstyne, who's also ex-Army and a cynical good shepherd for the stray sheep of his hometown. Their search for the baby's mother quickly leads them into the secrets that shadow Miller's Kill like the ever-present Adirondacks. What they discover is a world of trouble, an attraction to each other-and murder...
"Superb!"
-"Library Journal
"Terrific action scenes...what really distinguishes" In the Bleak Midwinter, however, is the author's skillful portrayal of her protagonist's inner conflict."
"-Washington Post Book World
"A riveting page-turner from start to finish."
