  ⛸️ The annual Frostfall Festival in the picturesque town of Silver Lake is a beloved tradition, centered around the town's charming outdoor ice rink. But the festive atmosphere freezes over when the rink's owner—a former Olympic skater with a sharp tongue and even sharper rivals—is found dead on the ice after the opening ceremony. The cause: a fatal blow to the head, disguised to look like a tragic skating accident. The prime suspect is the victim's former protégé, now a local coach, who had very public reasons to want her mentor out of the way. To clear her name, she must lace up her investigative skates and navigate a world of cutthroat competition, hidden resentments, and glittering secrets. With help from her enthusiastic husky, Glacier, and the rink's handsome head Zamboni driver, she uncovers a slippery trail of clues. From sabotaged skates and blackmail to a long-buried scandal that someone will kill to keep frozen in the past, the truth is buried just beneath the surface. Can she solve the case before the ice melts and the killer slips away forever?

  "The Adventure of the Devil's Foot" is one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Arthur Conan Doyle. It is one of eight stories in the cycle collected as His Last Bow. Doyle ranked "The Adventure of the Devil's Foot" ninth in his list of his twelve favorite Holmes stories.
  Holmes and Dr. Watson find themselves at Poldhu in Cornwall one spring for the former's health, but the holiday ends with a bizarre event. Mr. Mortimer Tregennis, a local gentleman, and Mr. Roundhay, the local vicar, come to Holmes to report that Tregennis's two brothers have gone insane, and his sister has died. Tregennis had gone to visit them in their village ('Tredannick Wollas'), played whist with them, and then left. When he came back in the morning, he found them still sitting in their places at the table, the brothers, George and Owen, laughing and singing, and the sister, Brenda, dead. The housekeeper had discovered them in this state, and fainted. The vicar has not been to see them yet. Tregennis says that he remembers one brother looking through the window, and then he himself turned to see some "movement" outside. He declares that the horrific event is the work of the devil. Mortimer Tregennis was once estranged from his siblings by the matter of dividing the proceeds from the sale of the family business, but he insists that all was forgiven, although he still lives apart from them. The doctor who was summoned, reckoned that she had been dead for six hours. He also collapsed into a chair for a while after arriving.

  Before you come with me, away from Silver Hollow, away from The Union, and away from all that is safe and comfortable, take a moment to look around you. Know that just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not there. 
  Also remember I did as much research as I could going into this story and consulted a number of people and read expert materials on firearms, Antarctic research facilities, and botany. All mistakes are mine, and mine alone. All creative license taken on many items is all mine as well. 
  Are you ready? Do you have a sweater? Bundle up, get cozy, and either read or listen to this tale of what is unseen in the cold and remote continent. Take my hand and squeeze it tight. I know the way out.
