Mystery.
A Multiple Drink Kind of NightWhy was it fancy Valentine's Day drinks were always tinted red? Reminded me more of gore and mayhem than anything to do with romance. Which said a lot, I suppose, for my state of mind when it came to relationships and dating.No bitterness in Fiona Fleming toward the opposite sex or anything.I sipped carefully at the mimosa the bartender smilingly handed me and shrugged off the sweetness. It had alcohol in it, so I guess it would do. A few of these and I might even find a way to enjoy myself tonight. Yeah, right.Fiona Fleming would rather be home, at her bed and breakfast with her pug Petunia snuggled up to her while everyone else celebrates Valentine's Day without her, thank you very much. Instead, she's been recruited to attend another of Mayor Olivia Walker's Reading, Vermont tourism promotion events. But when the young majority stakeholder in the White Valley Ski Lodge ends up dead, she's ready and willing to help Sheriff Crew Turner and her father uncover who killed their victim while a snowstorm cuts them off from the rest of the world.

Most of the important people (main characters) in the town of Reading, Vermont, are invited by Mayor Olivia Walker to the opening of the new Ski resort that is supposed to bring lots of tourism to the town. However, while the town are celebrating the ski resort opening, an unexpected snow storms hits them and they are all snowed in. The plows have been taken off the roads and noone can get to them.
One of the founding families of the town of Reading is the Patterson family, and the current heir to that family is a college aged spoiled brat named Mason Patterson. When the news broke that he had offered seasonal jobs at the resort to his friends from college, rather than honouring the family agreement to offer those jobs to people from Reading first. the mayor and the townspeople are not very happy.
When Mason is found dead during dinner, the three investigators swing into action, questioning suspects and looking for clues. The three investigators being the current Sheriff Crew Turner, the former Sheriff John Fleming, and the Amateur Sleuth Fiona Fleming.
Between Fiona's unexpected trip outside in the snow with no jacket, the discovery of Masons peanut allergy, and a vial of the peanut oil found on the floor near his seat, the true murderer is eventually uncovered.
Another excellent Cozy mystery of the enclosed space type - where everyone is shut into one place and unable to leave. Like the Murder on the Orient express or The Mysterious Affair at Styles. ( )
